This book sheds light on Japanese management control systems and the differences between that of the US, illustrated with examples of Japanese enterprises.
As the world's third-ranking economic power, Japan's style of management, such as the lifetime employment system, the seniority system, and an enterprise union, has been well studied. However, little else is known about the Japanese management control systems (MCSs) and management accounting systems, which are significantly different from other economic powers.

This book sheds light on Japanese MCSs and the differences with those of the United States, illustrated with examples from Mitsubishi Electric, Kao, and more. This book aids not only researchers in management accounting, but also provides more useful insight for international investors and management accountants that can prove useful in business management.

Takashi Shimizu is Professor at the Graduate School of Accountancy, Waseda University, and President of the Tokyo Chapter of Institute of Management Accountants. He was a member of the Japan Certified Public Accountant Examination Committee from 2006 to 2008.
