The sustainability of SMEs is supported by various important factors, both financial and non-financial. This study examines non-financial factors, namely the management accounting adoption model on the performance of SMEs in Maluku. The sample of this study consisted of 63 UKM units located in Ambon City, SBB Regency and Central Maluku Regency. The testing of management accounting adoption contingency models is carried out using path analysis. The result showed that management accounting adoption is a mediator of the relationship between the level of innovation and technology adoption in manufacturing activities with the performance of SMEs. However, this study has not succeeded in proving the relationship between manager characteristics and managers' perceptions of environmental uncertainty with the decision to adopt strategic management accounting by business units. These results indicate that there is a need for further introduction to the benefits of a strategic management accounting system as an important instrument in streamlining the business value chain.

Strategic Management Accounting

Previous research in the literature often investigated the associations between management accounting systems and the success of organizations. However, little has been done in regard to the association of business strategies, goals, and firms’ performance while having management accounting tools as mediators. Management accounting systems are classified as traditional and strategic management accounting themes. Each theme, of course, implements different accounting tools. This article explores the degree to which, as mediated by management accounting systems, the business strategies and business goals of large Thai manufacturing companies influence their financial and non-financial performance. To gather the data, a survey questionnaire was developed. Of the 1500 companies selected for inclusion in the survey, 205 provided completed and usable responses for a response rate of 13.67%. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the relationships among the variables. The findings shed some light on what the management of a firm could expect concerning organizational performance from their business strategies, business goals, and the implementation of specific management accounting systems. Corporate strategies and corporate goals had a statistical influence on both the financial and non-financial performance of the large corporations in Thailand when mediated via strategic management accounting systems, while there was no influence when mediated by traditional management accounting systems. A greater understanding of the relationships and effects of which mediators should have been employed in organizations to bring forth business strategies and business goals and generate productive results for organizational performance is provided by this research. Choosing the appropriate performance mediators can help achieve corporate strategies and goals.

The Relationship

Purpose This study aims to investigate the direct relationship between management accounting systems effectiveness (MASE) and enterprise risk management (ERM). In addition, it aims to investigate the interaction (moderating) effect of each of the four informational characteristics of MASE and each of the three components of perceived environmental uncertainty (PEU) on ERM, using empirical evidence from the developing country's Jordanian market. Design/methodology/approach The study population includes all Jordanian companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange at the end of 2019, and the study sample consists of all these companies (complete surveying – census population). This study chooses a quantitative method through a survey design approach using questionnaire as the best method for data collection. Findings The summation of the relationship and interaction effects (moderation) examined by this study are as follows: three of the four informational characteristics of MASE, namely, a broadness of scope, an aggregation and an integration, have a positive direct relationship with ERM. The characteristic ‘timeliness’ has non-significant negative relationship with ERM. Additionally, the interaction (moderating) effect of higher levels of two informational characteristics of MASE, namely, a timeliness and an aggregation and higher level of perceived competitor uncertainty, will result in a higher ERM implementation. Research limitations/implications The results of this study have significant ramifications for numerous companies, administrators and interested parties, as they may allow them to build and sustain effective accounting processes for management. These results support adopting sophisticated management accounting systems (MASs) instead of traditional systems in the companies to help them in improving the information quality and control levels, as well as reducing the risks by implementation of ERM. In addition, to ensure that companies are confronted with the environmental factors they face. The results of the present study will enable administrators to develop a deeper understanding of such management accounting systems. Originality/value To the best of the knowledge, this is the first study of Jordan to investigate the relationship between MASE and ERM, moderated by PEU. As such, the study raises significant findings, drawing attention to MASs and their role in Jordan.

The main purpose of this chapter is to examine the role of management accounting to measure and manage intellectual capital (IC), and more specifically to explore the potential role of strategic management accounting (SMA) in this process. In addition, this chapter is intended to link SMA practices and some IC resources. SMA practices enable the identification, measurement, and management of IC resources such as production processes and innovation capacity (e.g., target costing), quality management (e.g., quality costing), knowledge-based resources related to the organization´s external relationships (e.g., attribute costing, value chain costing, and target costing), and brand image (e.g., brand valuation/management). SMA practices, given its external orientation, enable, mainly, the identification and management of resources encompassed in relational capital. Therefore, this chapter contributes to the extant literature regarding the measurement and management of IC, highlighting the role of SMA, and provides some suggestions for further research.

Kertas kerja ini melaporkan hasil kajian yang menerangkan hubungan antara kecanggihan Teknologi Maklumat (IT) dan prestasi firma yang bersaiz kecil dan sederhana (SMEs), dengan memasukkan ke dalam model kajian, keupayaan sistem perakaunan pengurusan untuk menghasilkan maklumat perakaunan pengurusan (kapasiti MAS). Bagi menguji hubungan tersebut, data telah dikumpul daripada 310 firma menggunakan kaedah soal selidik. Hasil ujian menunjukkan bahawa kecanggihan IT merupakan penentu kepada kapasiti MAS, sementara kapasiti MAS pula akan menentukan prestasi firma. Dalam kata lain, kapasiti MAS memainkan peranan sebagai penghubung antara kecanggihan IT dengan prestasi firma. Interpretasi hasil ujian ini ialah firma yang menggunakan IT yang lebih canggih akan dapat menghasilkan maklumat perakaunan pengurusan yang mencukupi dan seterusnya dapat meningkatkan prestasi firma. Kata kunci: Teknologi Maklumat, sistem maklumat, sistem perakaunan pengurusan, sistem maklumat perakaunan, industri kecil dan sederhana This paper reports the results of a study which offers an explanation for the relationship between Information Technology (IT) sophistication and performance of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), by incorporating into the model of the capability of management accounting systems to generate management accounting information (MAS capacity). To assess the relationship, data were collected from 310 (25% response rate) SMEs by way of questionnaire surveys. The results indicate that IT sophistication is a determinant of MAS capacity, which, in turn, is a determinant of firm performance. In other words, MAS capacity plays a mediating role in the relationship between IT sophistication and firm performance. An interpretation of the results is that those firms that employed sophisticated IT can generate sufficient management accounting information and thereby improve performance.

Chain Analysis

This study aims to describe the concept of value chains as the basis for strategic management accounting design in three private universities in Kupang (East Nusa Tenggara). A qualitative approach with multiple case study methods is used in this study by focusing on the problems that arise as a result of the enactment of Law   No. 12 of 2012 concerning PTN-BH concerns autonomy and decentralization. Semi-structured interviews were conducted at three leaders of private universities, they were chosen because they were considered to have the greatest role in improving the quality of the institutions they lead. This research offers a contribution in identifying competitive advantages in an effort to improve the quality of private universities. In addition, contributions in designing strategic management accounting are also carried out in order to assess their relative position against competitors. This study found ten main themes, namely the number of new students, the ratio of lecturers to students; recruitment of new lecturers; use of technology; national and international publications; public services; quality of lectures; quality of graduates and waiting period; infrastructure development and promotion. Value chain analysis is proven to be able to breaking down the university to determine relevant strategies in order to improve sustainable quality. This research also shows that the case study method can be a powerful tool in analyzing the value chain concept. Keywords: Value Chain, Strategic Management Accounting, Private Universities
