IGC-DEFINITION (abbreviated)

Responsibility accounting / Verantwortlichkeitsrechnung
The whole management accounting system should be constructed on the principle of responsibility. Since managers are also responsible for the financial results, it is important to ensure, through the creation of cost centers, cost objects and contribution accounting, that each management person can see, which costs, outputs and revenues she can control directly within the time-span of one year.

The Importance of Imagination

While growing up, Id never really considered how important it is to be imaginative. Its a childhood profession, you could say. It comes naturally. Then we hit an age when were presented with a scantron of bubble-in options, a template for a CV that we need to create, and Excel. At that point, our learning has to fit into certain parameters: within that little bubble, within the one page limit, and within a tiny digital graph. So, what happens to our imagination?It seems to fade.
