| Summary: | Although extensively studied in the last two decades, contingency theory has been given
relatively little consideration in terms of the factors that influence the accounting
information systems. Few organizations appear to have systematic processes in place for
managing the evolution of their measurement systems and few researchers appear to
have explored two of the main questions: What are the requirements of accounting
information in UAE banks? And, how efficient is the accounting systems in UAE banks?
The paper addresses these questions by providing empirical evidence of management
accounting information contingencies based on a sample of banks in the UAE. |
