Asian Economic Growth and Management Accounting

Chapter 6 in Management Accounting, 2003, pp 70-85 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In the middle of the 1980s, Japanese management accounting attracted worldwide attention, as did the phenomenon of Japan’s bubble economy. Japanese management accounting was considered to have contributed to the high growth rates of the Japanese economy. As a result, corporations in foreign countries began to introduce the Japanese model of management accounting in order to bring about the integration of low cost and high quality. At the same time, Japanese corporations started to transfer the management accounting system as well as production plant and technology to foreign countries in order to counteract the losses in exports which had resulted from the appreciation of the yen.
