Value Creation Through Management Accounting Practices in Large Thai Manufacturing Companies
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2019, Vol 19, Issue 2
Abstract
This research explores the extent to which various management accounting practices (MAPs) have been implemented in large Thai manufacturing companies. Although IFAC 1998, which describes management accounting evolution, has been studied extensively in the two decades since its release, MAPs and their diffusion for business value creation has received relatively little attention. This study uses a survey questionnaire to collect information on this subject. Of the 1,500 companies that received the survey, 205 provided usable, complete responses, for a 13.67% response rate. Cluster analysis is used to group a set of data objects into four clusters with hierarchical agglomerative methods, and a discriminant analysis is used to assure the cluster analysis classification’s accuracy. The results show that the respondents used Budgeting for product cost controlling the most. We also discovered that the new, advanced MAPs are used increasingly among many large Thai companies. MAPs are used to create value for large Thai companies, but not yet to the highest stage, based on the IFAC evolution model. Adoption is still far behind compared to the pace of change in production processes, especially in light of increasing competition on the global level.<br/><br/>
