Description - Environmental Management Accounting by Christian Herzig
Sustainable development will not happen without substantial contributions and leading roles of companies and business organisations. This requires the provision of adequate information on corporate social and ecological impacts and performance for decision makers. For the last decade, progress has been made in developing and adapting accounting mechanisms to these needs but significant work is still needed to tackle the problems associated with conventional and environmental accounting. Until now, research on environmental management accounting (EMA) has concentrated on Western developed countries and on the cost-benefit analysis of the implementation of individual EMA tools. Using a comparative case study design, this book seeks to redress the balance and improve the understanding of the role of EMA in management decision-making in emerging countries, focusing specifically on South-East Asian companies. Drawing on 12 case studies, taken from a variety of industries, Environmental Management Accounting explores the relationship between decision situations and the motivation for, and barriers to, the application of clusters of EMA tools as well as the implementation process itself.
This book will be useful to scholars who are interested in the environmental and sustainability management accounting research field and those who are considering examining a specific approach to EMA within this particular area.
