Each department is made up of individuals who are responsible for particular tasks or managerial functions.
Goal congruence results when the managers of subunits throughout an organization strive to achieve the goals set by top management.
Responsibility accounting refers to the various concepts and tools used by managerial accountants to measure the performance of people and departments in order to foster goal congruence. (LO1)
