Developments in Management Accounting

The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) have agreed to collaboratively develop  products and services that are in the common interest of their collective membership who work in business and industry. With its focus on management accounting and the latest developments in global business, CIMA is a natural partner for the AICPA's Financial Management Center, which serves CPAs working in business and industry.

 

The first effort of the initiative is the "Developments in Management Accounting" series, which includes multiple titles concentrating on current management accounting issues and principles and strategies for implementation.
