Using Throughput Accounting for Cost Management and Performance Assessment: Constraint Theory Approach

The paper aims to use throughput accounting as an approach for developing cost accounting systems in the modern manufacturing environment to evaluate the organization performance. The sample consists of (60) persons in organization for examining the hypotheses. The findings show that information provided by throughput accounting helps in measuring costs and evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of performance in the organization. This approach supports planning and control processes to maximize throughput and reduce inventory levels. The use of Throughput Accounting under the Theory of Constraints leads to finding solutions to bottlenecks that affect the efficiency and effectiveness of performance.
