 | | | Management Accounting | | | | | Management Accounting is concerned with the provisions and use of accounting information to managers within organisations, to provide them with the basis to make informed business decisions that will allow them to be better equipped in their management and control functions.
In contrast to financial accountancy information, management accounting information is:
| | |  | primarily forward-looking, instead of historical; |
| | model based with a degree of abstraction to support decision making generically, instead of case based; |
| | designed and intended for use by managers within the organisation, instead of being intended for use by shareholders, creditors, and public regulators; |
| | usually confidential and used by management, instead of publicly reported; |
| | computed by reference to the needs of managers, often using management information systems, instead of by reference to general financial accounting standards.
|
| | | | | Management Accounting includes production of some or all of the following:
Management Accounts, budgeting, cash flows, cost accounting, management reporting, benchmarking, product/customer profitability analysis, establishing tailored KPI’s to suit the business. | | | | |  If you need assistance in any of the above areas, please email Sean or phone (01) 244 1194. | | | | | | | | |
