Funded Activity Summary

Multi-person judgement in management accounting. Improved managerial judgements can facilitate more efficient/effective resource allocation within organizations, significantly increasing Australian companies' competitiveness. Our project therefore benefits a range of stakeholder groups such as shareholders and employees. Also, by drawing on theories from different disciplines (accounting, social psychology), this project increases our understanding of how accounting information can encourage managers to behave in a socially desirable manner, such as adopting a conciliatory approach during negotiation. Other benefits include the training of future researchers and raising Australia's profile in accounting research.
