Nanni et al (1992) point out that traditional management accountants have tended to focus on a product-oriented rather than a process-oriented performance. There is some evidence that accountants have had little interests in any organizational changes even they had skills to bring some changes. For example, it was accountants who insisted on the implementation an activity-based costing system (Foster and Gupta, 1989) or product life-cycle costing system.
2.2.3 ‘Accounting lag’
Johnson and Kaplan (1987) criticized management accountant for their inability to innovations and this was viewed as an “accounting lag” .Kaplan (1984) in his study about accounting lag proposed that accountants “should develop a research strategy to meet new demands for planning and control information”. He suggested that there was little innovation since 1920. Accounting lag need to be minimized to keep accounting information relevant to all changes occurring over time.
