Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to reveal how accounting information is used in organizations which implement the management of profit at lower level (ex. a manufacturing setting or a site to provide service). Specifically, the author conducted a case study in order to explore (1)the subject of use, (2)the object of use, and (3)the way of use for accounting information. In conclusion, a manager principally uses accounting information, and there would be the involvement of top management according to organizational context (the extent of maturity and ability of organizational members).
