Decision making plays an important role in the
daily life of managers at different organizational levels. In order to be able
to make justified decisions, managers need contextually relevant
information to build their decisions on. In this Chapter, we outline how modern accounting
information systems (AIS) can support managerial decision making in
contemporary organizations. We first describe how the decision making and data
environments frame decision making situations. After that we apply the Burchell
et al. (1980) framework to analyse in more detail how AIS can support managers
in particular decision making situations.
