"Successful Foreign Acquisitions" investigates two cross-border acquisitions with the aim of looking at the role of management accounting in the process and drawing useful lessons about the acquistion and integration process for practioners. The authors: identify the acquisition strategy and examine its added value; evaluate the strategy in both cultural and economic terms; consider the required management control systems needed to implement the strategy and compare this with the actual control systems used; review what performance measures would be needed to encourage managers to deliver and compare these with the actual measures introduced; and consider how environmental and cultural differences impact on this process.
