Looking Back to Assess the Present: Different Development Paths for Controlling in the US, Germany
by Gary Cokins, CPIM, Analytics-Based Performance Management LLC and Larry White, Executive Director, Resource Consumption Accounting Institute
The world of the professional accountant working in public practice or in business is typically dominated by standards, regulations, and laws governing external financial reporting intended for the investment community and regulatory agencies. When financial information is presented or reported in any different form, it is often looked at with a certain level of suspicion and requests for reconciliation with the externally reported financial statement figures. This suspicion is a significant impediment to creating and using decision-useful management accounting information to provide internal insights and decision support. However, this is where management accounting information is most needed to create sustainable economic value.
