Description
| Summary: | While firms increasingly recognize the imperative of becoming sustainable, the challenges of sustainability are also increasingly evident. The case highlights the role of management control and accounting in supporting implementation of environmental, social, and economic aspects of sustainability in a multi-stakeholder global environment. Techniques including dashboards, quality costs, and cost-benefit analysis are shown to increase the effectiveness of planning and control of sustainability. The case also considers the reality of conflicts within stakeholder interests underlying sustainability issues, and the role of accounting in measuring and managing the risks and associated costs in these more complex and uncertain scenarios.
