Q. Define
Management Accounting.
The
process of preparing management reports and accounts that provide accurate and
timely financial and statistical information required by managers to make day
to day and short time decisions is called Management Accounting.
Unlike
financial accounting, which produces annual reports mainly for external
stakeholders, management accounting generates monthly or weekly reports for an
organization's internal audiences such as department managers and the chief
executive officer. These reports typically show the amount of available cash,
sales revenue generated, amount of orders in hand, state of accounts payable
and accounts receivable, outstanding debts, raw material and inventory, and may
also include trend charts, variance analysis, and other statistics.
