management control
General accounting which is mandatory by law, provides information on the nature and quantity of the production factors used, such as: materials, work, energy, etc. but does not give indications on the destination of these resources, on the efficiency of the production process or on the effectiveness of the results obtained.
To have a quantification of the cost of a process, products or orders, an analytical- or industrial accounting must be put in place.
This accounting has no legal constraints but has to represent the complexity and specificity of the company and must be created ad hoc for each case.
An analytical accounting system allows to quantify the absorption of the different production factors used in a process in order to calculate the unit costs, also as function the utilisation of the existing production capacity. In this manner it is possible to guide the company towards specific objectives. Management by objectives allows, through a detailed monitoring process, to know during the year if the company is heading in the right direction. This permits to review and improve the strategies in order to reach the objectives.
