Abstract

As a managerial tool, accounting is put in the service of management, ensuring the link between the operational system and the entity’s administrating management system. In an economic context with radical and often unexpected changes, we feel that there is a constant need to improve the use of management accounting information for management based on coherent development programs combined with the regulations in force to harness the potential of the organization, the benefits it can use and minimize risks through more coordination, dynamism, and reasoning. The paper highlights that the management accounting system is involved in the internal management of the entity and provides vital information to managers in several interconnected areas: forecasting, cost calculation and analysis, coordination, decision-making, control, evaluation. Starting from the aspects that highlight the necessity and usefulness of management accounting information for management, through the selective research carried out on a sample of 301 entities, we aimed to analyze the opportunity of providing information through the management accounting system, with a series of conclusions based on the associations established.
