Management and cost accounting has been the basic toolbox in
business administration for decades. Today it is an integral part
of all curricula in business education and no student can afford
not to be familiar with its basic concepts and instruments. At the
same time, business in general, and management accounting in
particular, is becoming more and more international. English
clearly has evolved as the "lingua franca" of international
business. Academics, students as well as practitioners exchange
their views and ideas, discuss concepts and communicate with each
other in English. This is certainly also true for cost accounting
and management accounting. Management Accounting is becoming
increasingly international. "Management and Cost Accounting" is a
new English language textbook covering concepts and instruments of
cost and management accounting at an introductory level (Bachelor,
but also suited for MBA courses due to strong focus on practical
applications and cases). This textbook covers all topics that are
relevant in management accounting in business organizations and
that are typically covered in German and Central European Bachelor
classes on cost accounting and management accounting. After an
introduction to the topic, including major differences between the
German approach and the purely Anglo-Saxon approach of management
accounting, the book describes different cost terms and concepts
applied in German cost accounting, The book is much more specific
here compared to US-American standard textbooks. Based on different
cost concepts, the topic of cost behavior is discussed, including
the determination of cost functions. The heart of the book guides
the reader through the general structure of a fully developed cost
accounting system following the German and Central European
standard: It starts with cost type accounting, moves on to cost
center accounting and finally deals with cost unit accounting,
assigning cost to goods and services offered in the market. The
remaining parts of the book deal with decision making and how
management and cost accounting data can support managers in this
task. A comparison of absorption costing and variable costing
introduces the reader to management decisions such as product
portfolio and outsourcing decisions. Additionally,
cost-volume-profit analysis (break-even-analysis) is covered. The
book closes with a comprehensive treatment of cost planning and
variance analysis.
