In the present scenario, cost and management accounting techniques have proved their effectiveness in decision making as they provide value creation. Therefore, the need for transforming traditional cost and management accounting to strategic cost management has been recognized. Manufacturing or service industries continuously seek to achieve business performance with the help of strategic cost management using contingency theory. This chapter provides a semi-systematic review of the articles and research papers examining major themes found in the literature focusing on the impact of various factors that are contingent in nature on the business performance through usage of strategic cost management. Systematic analysis of literature identified numerous relevant articles and research papers in eminent journals. The results indicated that there exists an interrelationship among variables, and the finding supports the central proposition of contingency theory where business performance increases with the usage of strategic cost management and contingent factors.

The object of the paper is to study the relationship between management accounting, strategic management accounting and strategic cost management. The Aim is to define each of them based on a systematic literature review of different accounting literatures in strategic management accounting, to emphasize the relation between them. The paper attempts to offer definitions of Strategic cost management based on different authors throw the years and also to reveal a relationship that exists between Strategic Management Accounting and other disciplines. The enduring value of contextual view of management accounting and its content emphasizes power and relationship between Management Accounting, Strategic Management Accounting and Strategic Cost Management. The methodology used for this paper is descriptive and comparative based on a systematic literature review from different books and journals, especially Scopus indexed journals taken by Elsevier, emerald insight and other trustable library sources. The paper explores a comparative analysis between management accounting and strategic management accounting. Practical limitations of this paper have been mainly focused on having access to Scopus indexed journals. Also, another limitation encountered is related with electronic library which in our country is very difficult and even impossible to have free access in reading and downloading related papers. The intention was to identify similarities and differences between Strategic Management Accounting and Strategic Cost Management and also the relationship that exists between them. The paper concluded that Strategic management has as its primary goal the efficient use of all resources while focusing on the competitive advantage of an organization. Hence, SMA could be considered as an integral part of the strategic management; an interaction of the management and the SMA techniques is important for the more efficient management of an entity.   Received: 19 June 2021 / Accepted: 23 August 2021 / Published: 5 September 2021


The research is actual, has a theoretical and applied nature. Theoretical developments at cost management branch of economic organization were illustrated by practical examples. In the work the follow methods are used: abstract-logical, methods of induction and deduction, system and situate approaches, methods of comparative analysis, analysis of breakeven, monographic analysis. The follow sources of information were used: literature, the results of the experimental investigations, carried out in Verkh-nevolzhsky Federal Agrarian Research Centre, observations, carried out at an agricultural organization. Theoretical structural model of cost management was created in a functional way, relationship between elements were designated in it, as well as driving forces of its realization were determined. Such terms as “cost management ” and «management accounting» were specified. The paradigm of a relation to cost process was described. Approaches to realization of cost management system of organization on the basis offlexibility principle were developed. The most important of them are: application of applied programs packages and special program means for computer, organization of feedback, account of functional relationship of cost with production results, cost accounting on elements, places of origin, carriers and centers of responsibility, as well as interactive approach. Some examples which show possibilities of using some instruments of cost management and management accounting for generation of management solutions were described. These instruments are: analysis and planning on the basis of standards of constant and variable costs and flexible cost management in interrelations to other subsystems in management system of organization (in this case it is with technology management. The work is of theoretical and practical significance.
