International Management Accounting in Japan:Current Status of Electronics Companies

Edited by Kanji Miyamoto

in World Scientific Books from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: In the interests of globalization, many companies today are establishing theories and practices for international management accounting. This book discusses the current status of international management accounting in Japan through interviews with three major electronics companies. By tracing the history of the business expansion of the three companies, as well as their transition of strategies and accompanying organizational structure, key features and details of international management accounting are faithfully described. The book is divided into two parts. Part I describes general concepts of international management accounting in global companies, while Part II analyzes the experiences of three leading electronics companies — Matsushita, Sharp and Sanyo — in international management accounting. Written in a scholarly yet accessible manner, this book will benefit both academics and industry professionals practising in the field.
