You know, the guy who works in the finance department and periodically swoops in to remind you of one of the following:
- You're over your budget on [pick one: travel & entertainment, salaries, headcount].
- You're missing your budget on revenues.
- You didn't submit the monthly Excel template on [pick one: travel & entertainment, salaries, headcount, revenues].
- You need to join the weekly meeting on [pick one: travel & entertainment, salaries, headcount, revenues], where you'll pitch out on your monthly Excel template (see previous bullet).
This blog won't be about any of that annoying crap that I do. Instead, I'm going to focus on the value-added elements of being a corporate financial analyst (one of the many roles that would be generalized as "management accountant").
Hopefully this blog is a different kind of accounting blog. Most accounting-related blogs focus on financial reporting (i.e. reporting to external stakeholders) rather than management accounting (i.e. generating reports for management to use while operating the business). This blog is intended to start where management accounting textbooks leave off.
So that's it. Let's get started.
