Abstract. The necessity of development of the conceptual basis of formation of the accounting information in strategic management of IT-cluster is substantiated. On the basis of the system approach the concept of the account is formed: the place of the account in information system of strategic management is defined; specified and structured basic elements (purpose, tasks, functions, subjects, methods, tools), which form the methodological basis of modern management accounting theory. The study of the structure of strategic management was conducted on the example of the Lviv cluster of information technology and business services (Lviv IT-cluster), which operates as an association of IT companies, Lviv City Council and educational institutions. It is established that the object of management is the joint activities of independent interacting economic entities, each of which in an integrated structure performs its functions. It is established that strategic management accounting provides coordination of interaction of its participants and serves as an information base for development of long-term strategy of development in IT-cluster. It is determined that the introduction of strategic management accounting in the cluster will solve the problem of forecasting and planning the activities of the association as a whole and its individual members. The list of methods and tools of strategic management accounting in the cluster grouped by the authors allows to consider this accounting system not only as an information source of decision-making, but as a tool resource for strategy support. It is determined that the key tools of management accounting in the IT-cluster are SWOT-analysis, a system of balanced scores, benchmarking and budgeting. Keywords: management accounting, strategy, integrated structures, cluster. JEL Classification М41, L24, O32 Formulas: 0; fig.: 2; tabl.: 1; bibl.: 10.

The necessity of the analysis of historical features of formation of the strategic management accounting has been grounded. The peculiarities of the crisis in management accounting in the 1980s have been determined. The requirements to the management accounting system in terms of strategic cost management have been identified. A significant increase in attention to the problems of development of strategic management accounting (demarcation with classical management accounting, separation of methods, empirical research of accounting practice) since the 2000s has been established. The lack of a unified interpretation of the concept of «strategic management accounting» among Ukrainian and foreign scientists has been identified. Characteristic features of strategic management accounting have been determined (development of management accounting with strategic orientation; external orientation (outward-oriented); future orientation (perspective orientation); application of both financial and non-financial typologies of measurement in focus on internal resources and organizational capabilities). The main purpose of strategic management accounting as the creation of information support to achieve competitive advantages and improve the performance of the enterprise has been grounded.

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.

The expediency of developing strategic management accounting based on the use of a balanced scorecard has been substantiated. The purpose of the article is to identify areas of development of the strategic management accounting system based on the use of a balanced scorecard, as well as obstacles to its effective functioning. The necessity of introducing the position of a strategic management accountant in the conditions of using a balanced scorecard at enterprises has been substantiated. The main differences between a strategic management accountant and a traditional management accountant have been identified. In order to overcome the crisis in the management accounting system, it has been proposed to expand the subject area of the classical management accounting system in order to meet the needs of strategic management of the enterprise. The possibilities of the balanced scorecard to provide comprehensive control and interactive management of the strategic development of the enterprise have been analyzed. The directions for the development of strategic management accounting based on the use of a balanced scorecard have been developed (development of organizational structure for building strategic management accounting system; distinguishing between the functions of strategic management accountants and strategic managers; empirical analysis of the effectiveness of the implementation of a balanced scorecard as an accounting tool). Organizational and methodological obstacles that prevent the introduction of a balanced scorecard as a method of strategic management accounting are identified and systematized into three groups. The job functions and strategic tasks of a strategic management accountant have been formed, which will combine traditional accounting functions for the collection and processing of strategic accounting information with analytical, control and communication functions. Organizational and methodological barriers to the smooth implementation of a balanced scorecard as a method of strategic management accounting in the practice of Ukrainian enterprises have been identified and analyzed (associated with improper performance of strategic management functions; associated with improper performance of their functions by strategic accountants; related to the economic and communication problems of the functioning of a balanced scorecard as an accounting tool).

Objective - Hinduism presupposes all life activities. This includes Strategic Management Accounting (SMA) which could maintain life's equilibrium by practising the goal of life suggested by the Tri Kaya Parisudha (TKP). In general, SMA does not have a framework of reference for accountants to manage functions and to contribute to decision making. In that regard, this paper aims to develop a frame value for SMA based on the cooperatives noted in the Hindu orientation of the TKP. Methodology/Technique - The method employed to analyze data is the combined development of grounded theory(GT) and intersubjective analysis. The frame value for SMA consists of three elements of manacika(center of strategic thinking) followed by wacika and kayikaas noted in the dharma of the TKP. Findings - The findings show that the synergy of the framework is based on mind control (manacika) which impacts on wacika and kayika in SMA. This synergy impacts on the equilibrium between materials (sekala) and non-materials (niskala) in the dharma for the purpose of reaching the goal synergy. Novelty - The combination of the intersubjective approach and the GT approach helps to uncover the correlation patterns of the core category noted in the establishment of the SMA's value framework. This is derived from the TKP's equilibrium through the story line. Type of Paper Review Keywords: Internalization, Life Equilibrium, Goals Synergy, System, Dharma. JEL Classification: M41, P25.

The urgency of considering the balanced scorecard as a method of strategic management accounting has been substan-tiated. The factors influencing the choice of methods of strategic management accounting of a particular enterprise have been highlighted (specific features of economic activity of the enterprise; specific features of the strategic management system of the enterprise; availability of free financial resources to build an information system of strategic management accounting of the en-terprise; management and accounting traditions). The approaches of Ukrainian scientists to the choice of methods of strategic management accounting have been analyzed. The advantages of the balanced scorecard in comparison with other methods of strategic management accounting have been considered. The essence of the balanced scorecard as a method of strategic man-agement accounting and the goal of each of its perspectives have been revealed. Proposals for the development of a balanced scorecard as a method of strategic management accounting in the research of Ukrainian scientists have been analyzed. The influence of the balanced scorecard system implementation on the transformation of system of information provision of strategic management of the enterprise in the context of the four basic directions has been analyzed (clarifying the vision and translating it into strategy; establishing communications and communication; implementation of planning and goal setting; establishing stra-tegic feedback). The procedure for constructing strategic maps of different levels in a balanced scorecard has been considered. The reasons for the possibility of understanding the balanced scorecard as a method of strategic management accounting have been determined (strategic orientation, external orientation, future orientation, application of financial and non-financial indica-tors). A balanced system of indicators is considered as a new method of strategic management accounting, using a process approach to understanding the enterprise, providing an integrated approach to strategic and financial analysis, providing a com-prehensive analysis of the enterprise (internal and external environment). The main ways of development of engineering bases of construction of system of strategic financial accounting are allocated and analyzed.Keywords: strategic management accounting, balanced scorecard, strategic accounting information, strategic control.Обґрунтовано актуальність розгляду збалансованої системи показників як методу стратегічного управлінського обліку.
