Financial accounting is concerned with providing information primarily to investors, creditors, and others outside of the organization. 1-2 Essentially, the manager carries out three major activities in an organization: planning, implementation, and control. All three activities involve d ecision- making and use managerial accounting information. This is depicted in Exhib it 1- 1. 1-3 The Planning, Implementation and Control Cycle involves the following steps: (1) formulating plans which often includes preparing budgets, (2) overseeing day- to- day activities which includes organizing, directing and motivating p eople, resource allocation and decision making, and (3) controlling which in cludes providing feedback via performance reports. 1-4 In contrast to financial accounting, managerial accounting: (1) focuses on the needs of the manager; (2) places more emphasis on the future; (3) emphasizes relevance and timeliness, rather than verifiability and precision; (4) emphasizes the segments of an organization; (5) is not governed by IFRS or ASPE; and (6) is not mandatory. 1-5 The lean business model focuses on continuous improvement by eliminating waste in the organization. Companies that adopt the lean business model usually implement one or more of the following management practices.  Just- in-time (JIT): A production and inventory control system in which materials are purchased and units are produced only as needed to meet actual customer demand.  Total quality management (TQM): An approach to continuous improvement that focuses on serving customers and uses teams of front- line workers to systematically identify and solve problems.  Process re-engineering: An approach to improvement that involves completely redesigning business processes in order to eliminate unnecessary steps, reduce errors, and reduce costs.  Theory of constraints (TOC): A management approach that emphasizes the importance of managing constraints. 1-6 Benefits  Improves operational processes that makes the business efficient  It leads to reduction or elimination of waste  It improves profitability and reduces costs  It reduces the turnaround time to fulfill customer orders improving customer satisfaction Limitations 1-7 Pros Production schedule can get hampered if any external shocks lead to supply chain disturbance Lean processes must be complimented with agile processes to adapt swiftly to changing customer needs. Funds tied up in maintaining inventory can be used elsewhere Areas previously used to store inventories are made available for other more productive uses The time required to fill an order is reduced, resulting in quicker response to customers and consequentially greater potential sales Defect rates are reduced resulting in less waste and greater customer satisfaction More effective operations Cons Increased number of purchase orders to buy raw materials and/or other components used in manufacturing products There is little room for errors and defects in products b ecause this could throw the production facility off schedule There is a high reliance and dependence on suppliers to meet delivery deadlines as well as supply products that have no defects and require minimal inspection 1-8 Agree. Ethical behaviour is the foundation of a successful market economy. If we cannot trust people to act ethically in their business dealings with us, we will be inclined to invest less, scrutinize more and waste money and time (scarce reso urces) trying to protect ourselves.
