Taking a human capital perspective, people are allocated to projects and teams following allocation criteria that tend to be based not on resource consumption, but on competence contribution. Then, however, the ABC methods become too complex to be understood, believed in, and willingly and conWdently used by the improvement team. The space between the Wrm and the supplier is information-rich; otherwise it would not be possible to make the relationship work. Each product they sell must always be ‘new’ in some way if the creative industries are to retain and grow their customer base. Hartmann, G. H. (2000). Others try to succeed without formal training by moving to Hollywood and hoping to be discovered. Harris, M. and Raviv, A. (Source: Adapted from Reich 2005) ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING 391 be applied to the results of an LCA, aggregating the results. Finally, environmental and social aspects must be integrated according to their strategic relevance, including additional non-market perspectives. ‘Signs of Sustainability: Measuring Corporate Environmental and Social Performance’, in M. Bennett and P. James (eds. But the reasons advanced by Johnson and Kaplan for this lack of relevance and their analysis of how management accounting could be made more relevant were greeted with some scepticism by management accounting researchers in the UK. Early examples that identified configurations of context and associated control systems were Bruns and Waterhouse (1975) and Merchant (1981). Flamholtz, E. G. (1983). Most of the beneWts to Komatsu from its new relationship with Toyo were from the improved design capabilities of the dyadic pair. The new threats posed by international terrorism and ‘weapons of mass destruction’ have recently prompted responses of a kind that would have been understood by Mahan. (1989). These papers provided an informed picture of management accounting practices, but often failed to theorize them. (Till 1982: 30)31 ACCOUNTING AND STRATEGY 181 We have suggested how the disciplinary practices at Thayer’s West Point engendered a new power–knowledge regime, which would invent strategy and structure for the complexity of modern business and military development. —— —— (1991). In many cases it seems intuitively obvious that our ambition should be to maximize aspects of performance, such as customer satisfaction for example. A case in point is the entrepreneur Stelios Haji-Ioannou and his Easy Group executives who have been said to ‘obsess about managing yield’ (Kirkpatrick 2003b: 76) and to consider the maximization of asset utilization and returns as ‘a never-ending battle of Wne-tuning’ (Haji-Ioannou, cited in Kirkpatrick 2003b).

In so far as government is a congenitally failing activity, but also an eternally optimistic one, MODERNIZING GOVERNMENT 201 which presumes that social life and the networks through which it is enacted can be made governable, we can only ever expect temporary stabilizations of networks of power and inXuence (Rose and Miller 1992). The catchphrase with respect to the BSC’s organizational use is that it must be the ‘cornerstone of a new strategic management system’ (Kaplan and Norton 1996: 75). However, although diVerences were seen to exist, the essential nature of management accounting practice did not seem to vary substantially across industries or countries. Klammer 1972; Schall et al. Strategy and Structure. The second advantage is that because the contributions to the bonus pool are irrevocable, the principal has no incentive to not pay out the bonus pool in the way promised. 5.4.2 CONTINGENCY EFFECTS AND ECONOMIC VALUE MEASURES The lack of evidence on the superiority of economic value measures raises the issue as to whether economic value measures are best suited to different contextual settings. ), The Earthscan Reader in Business and Sustainable Development. Flexibility can take the form of customizing access to diVerent IT systems and reports, or of customizing analysis and commentary of reports to diVerent users: By giving users the choice of building up diVerent aggregations of performance information, management control systems might support highly diVerentiated, yet interrelated, mental maps of the organization that are speciWc to changing circumstances. But even without considering a transaction cost of implementing a new costing system, measurement cost of maintaining the system, or a boundedly rational human who cannot deal with very complex costing systems, more accuracy may not always be needed. A relatively new and promising channel for distribution is mobile entertainment, whereby consumers will be able to use the device of their choice to download Wlm clips no matter where they are. —— and Jacobsson, B. (2005). At the outbreak of the Civil War, therefore, decisive battle was an important concept in American strategy.

It produced vehicles at 20 plants in 15 countries and marketed them in 110 countries through 200 distributorships and over 6,000 dealerships. (1990). It is to that issue we now turn. 310 ROBERTS This chapter is organized in three sections. This also requires the focal Wrm to change: if technology development is outsourced, the focal Wrms need to reduce ‘development’ expertise and insource ‘coordination’ expertise between diVerent technology suppliers. Simons (1987) is one of the Wrst examples of a ‘conventional’ survey of MCS and strategy. (1990), Bernardo et al. His research focuses on the practice of management control and performance evaluation. London: CIMA. It might be expected that these types of technologies would require flexible responses, high levels of open communication within the workforce, and systems to manage the interdependencies. 15 Changing times: management accounting research and practice from a UK perspective Robert W. Scapens 15.1 Introduction Recent years have witnessed signiWcant changes in both management accounting research and practice. ‘Overhead allocation via mathematical programming models’. 1999, 2001; Arya and Glover 2001; Arya et al. Knowledge as a bundled and ‘sticky’ resource is hard to reconcile with the transactional orientation underlying management accounting. Keat, R. and Urry, J. This is followed by an examination of diVerent performance measurement innovations and how their implementation may be aVected by context. Managers will thus be given a variety of operating performance measures by which their performance will be assessed and managed. He wondered if perhaps sea power had an inXuence on historical events far beyond the immediate impact of battles lost or won. Horngren, C. (1962). ‘Consequences of Individual Feedback on Behaviour in Organizations’, Journal of Applied Psychology, 64: 383–84. Information-intensive services such as web-based airline bookings and carrental reservation systems and Internet-based courier-tracking facilities are now commonplace. The right-hand side of Figure 18.1 shows how a motion picture moves into other markets. Boston: Addison-Wesley. Structurationist accounts highlight the moral, political, and interpretive dimensions of apparently neutral management accounting technologies. For example, if accountants become too close to the business, there could be a loss of the traditional governance aspect of accounting. Information is viewed as data interpreted into a meaningful framework. For ABC to be eVective in obtaining correct information, adequate allocation is necessary (Schaltegger and Muller 1998). The owner could write a new contract that would reduce the agency cost. . ‘The Costs of Activity-based Management’, Accounting, Organizations and Society, 27(1/2): 99–120. Second, Olympus’ experience showed that products were launched on time more frequently. There may be several reasons for this, such as the concentration of researchers on top-level controls, the prevalence of many diVerent control practices at lower levels, and the unfamiliarity of accounting researchers with the types of non-accounting controls (including production line layout and physical inventory controls) that have gained increased importance at Wrst-line management levels. (1997). Porter (1995). These include environmental uncertainty, strategy, technology, organizational structure, and size. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press. The former are attributed to joint environmental cost centres, such as waste-disposal systems. Once connectivity is established and the unit is operational, cost can be accumulated and pooled on the basis of that network. It may also be surprising that the person who put $1 billion into the CHC venture (actually, $1.65 billion in the real RCN situation) was the highly regarded investor, Paul Allen, who made billions in the Microsoft start-up. Kelly, K. (1998). It would take considerable time and resources on the part of Komatsu to bring them up to the same level of capabilities as Toyo Radiator. ‘The Average Hospital’, Accounting, Organizations and Society, 30: 555–83.
