Abstract

In this sense, accounting and especially management accounting has the key role of providing management with the necessary information resources to make the best decisions. Based on these considerations, the main objective of the paper is to analyze the contribution of information generated by management accounting in the decision-making process and control of economic activities, in terms of presenting the role of this information, thus supporting managers to model the relationship between resources and performance. Thus, through the research undertaken, the study of how management accounting and the information it generates within the companies in Suceava County was analyzed, thus being able to identify and analyze the practices and perceptions of managers and professional accountants on the role and importance of the managerial accounting information.
