Cost accounting; Budgeting & financial management

To keep up with the ever-changing and increasingly competitive global manufacturing environment, traditional cost accounting systems need to become world-class cost management systems. This book explains the differences between cost accounting and cost management. It provides a compilation of experiences--both good and bad--that illustrate various approaches to Lean implementation. Discussing the changing paradigms and the role of the traditional controller, the author covers target cost, Lean human resources systems values, and the use of visuals in Lean accounting implementations.
