Abstract

In order to improve the cost management and business decision-making of SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises), management accounting was applied. First, the concept, research background, research purpose and significance of management accounting were briefly described. Then, the problems of the application of management accounting in SMEs were summarized and analyzed. The factors that influence the application of management accounting in SMEs were investigated. Finally, in response to the existing problems, corresponding countermeasures were proposed. The results showed that the application of management accounting in SMEs could improve the financial management level of SMEs, promote financial management activities to play a greater role in their cost management and business decision-making, and enhance the core competitiveness of SMEs. To sum up, management accounting plays an important role in effectively strengthening internal management and improving the economic efficiency of enterprises.
