Succeeding in managerial accounting. Part 2: a structural equations analysis

چکیده
Does the type of knowledge, and levels of ability and experience needed, depend on rank in managerial accounting? Are the knowledge, ability, and experience needed for managerial accounting success, consistent with the Libby & Luft (L&L) model (1993) of the determinants of judgment performance in accounting? We explore these questions using structural equation models of the performance evaluations of 2941 practicing managerial accountants. Results indicate that technical managerial accounting knowledge, ability, and experience predict job performance success for junior managerial accountants; industry knowledge, tacit managerial knowledge (TMK) and experience predict success for seniors; and, industry and TMK predict success for managers. The results suggest signi®cant (though not identical) commonality in the predictors of success in managerial accounting and the determinants of judgment performance identi®ed in the L& L model. # 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
