| Abstract: | As the Bob Dylan song of the 1960s warned, "The times they are achanging". Management acountants certainly can attest to the sagacity of those lyrics. But how exactly will the changing times affect CPAs in the years ahead? Change is not new to management accountants. After all, they are expected to be jack-of-all-trades and to leap nimbly from one priority to another -- handling amounts receivable one day, payables the next, human resources a week later, closing the books at the start of each month and -- most demanding of all -- dropping whatever they are doing to provide instant information and analysis on everything from inventory to cash flow. |
