Management reporting closely examines the process of converting consumed resources into results, allowing managers to set and permanently evaluate the fulfilment of business goals. This article considers a comparative approach between financial and management reporting, analyzing some important differences in terms of the objective of financial and managerial reporting, users of reports, purposes of reports and types of reports.
