<p>Background: The management accounting coordination in a horizontal network of small and medium sized companies entails numerous questions and potential complications that may vary according to the extent of cooperation chosen. Categorizing network co-operations along an imaginary market–hierarchy continuum might offer the theoretical foundation needed to further understand networks and as a consequence illuminate the link to the diverse management accounting issues. </p><p>Purpose: To analyze the management accounting systems in different forms of horizontal network co-operations. </p><p>De

The presupposition that accounting is capable of producing representations which correspond with a reality wholly anterior and exterior to them - widely privileged in accounting and other texts - is analysed and challenged in the thesis.

These texts are directly analysed and subjected to their own proof criterion of correspondence. The aim is to show that each text defers the point at which the pure

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the economic consequences of and constraints on real earnings management. My thesis consists of two essays. In the first essay, I examine the association between real earnings management and the cost of new corporate bond issues. Three types of real earnings management are considered: sales manipulation, overproduction and abnormal reduction of discretionary expenditures. Using the sample from 1993 to 2004, I find that cost of debt is negatively related to the proxies for sales manipulation, abnormal reduction of discretionary expenses

Abstract:

There have been calls for more research into how changes in supply chain management practices (SCMPs) affect management accounting practices (MAPs) and in turn affect performance. While the linkages between SCMPs, MAPs and performance may seem intuitive, to date there has been limited empirical research testing these relationships. The objective of the research is therefore to test a number of hypotheses regarding the association between these variables and firm performance based on the contingency theory framework.

In this paper I examine how one construction management company uses contract design and incentive design to respond to aspects of task complexity and relationship complexity present in its construction projects. In terms of contract design, I find that the company is unable to increase its use of cost-plus pricing when faced with technically complex projects. Instead, the company uses increased pre-execution design modification and price markups when technically complex projects are contracted with fixed-pricing. Further, I find that design modification is only margin-improving when used in p

The subject of accountability in organizations is originally and widely understood within the framework of economic rationalization. In particular, accountability in mainstream accounting literature has been assumed to be related to the stewardship function and analyzed within the confines of Principal-Agent theory (Laughlin, 1996). The framework assumes that the transfer of economic resources by the Principal to the Agent gives the Principal rights to demand and get accounts and explanations from the Agent (Gray, 1983).
