1 Title: Management Accounting Control: Contemporary Theories and Issues Lecturer: Professor Shahzad Uddin Essex Business School University of Essex Colchester CO4 3SQ UK Co-Editor, Journal of Accounting in Emerging Economies( Co-Editor, Research in Accounting in Emerging Economies ( Chair, Accounting in Less Developed and Emerging Economies, British Accounting Association ( Aim of the course The main aim of the course is to develop a critical understanding of the management accounting control. The course critically examines a range of contemporary management accounting control issues and theories to understand the current practices of management accounting locally and globally. In particular, the course evaluates management control theories in the context of different cultural, political, and socio-economic contexts. The course will also explore the current debate of privatisation and public sector reforms and their underlying assumptions implicating better accounting controls in privatised enterprises in both developed and emerging countries. The Main Issues Traditionally, management accounting is seen as a tool to provide information to internal parties in organisations for decision-making, planning and control. Contemporary management accounting studies have demonstrated that the role of management accounting within the organisation is much more wider and complex. Similarly, a variety of management accounting theories have been developed to understand the changing nature of management accounting control practices. Thus, this course begins with the evolution of management accounting in order to understand the socio-political and socioeconomic context of management accounting practices and research. This will provide the opportunity to critically discuss the management control theories and their influences on management accounting practices. The discussions on theories will also focuses on the questions such as the applicability of management accounting control theories and
2 approaches in non-western contexts. In addition to the analyses of various theories of management accounting controls, the course examines the topical issues such as the implications of culture in management accounting. This should provide a critical understanding of varied management control practices in different cultural settings. The course subsequently examines the privatisation and public sector reforms debate with regard to management accounting controls. The particular theme will scrutinize the claims made by the advocates of privatisation and public sector reforms that public sector reforms and ownership changes will bring about sophisticated management controls within public and privatised companies. Teaching methodology The course consists of lectures, group work, presentations of cases and papers. The lecture will indicate the main areas and themes that you will consider during the course. Lectures will be followed by cases, group work and presentations of selected topics. Prerequisites The course builds on previous knowledge on management accounting. Students without accounting background should be able to cope but require some basic readings on management accounting. Learning outcome At the end of the course students should be able to: 1. Understand the history and development of management accounting; 2. Understand the contemporary theoretical perspectives to management accounting control; 3. Understand comparative analyses of management control practices and various control theories; 4. Engage in critical debate in the examination of traditional management control theory in different cultural, political, and socio-economic contexts; 5. Understand management control practices operating in enterprises located in emerging and less developed countries; 6. Understand cultures and their implications on management accounting controls 7. Understand the current debate of privatisation and public sector reforms and accounting controls. Literature There is no single major textbook for the course.
