Abstract
The last few years have seen a growing interest in strategic management accounting (SMA). Following a consideration of what accounting techniques may comprise SMA, the results of a questionnaire survey investigating the incidence of 17 SMA techniques are reported. Data from 108 large Slovenian manufacturing companies reveal that there is a wide range of application rates for the techniques appraised: capital budgeting, quality costing and competitor performance appraisal are the most widely used; valuation of customers as assets, lifetime customer profitability analysis and life cycle costing are the least widely used.
