The Financial Accounting Standards Board is the organization that sets all of the accounting rules and principles. These are called Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). In your discussion answer the following questions.
Do such standards exist with managerial accounting information?
Please do some research and see what standards there are for managerial accounting
If there are standards, what are they?If not, do you think there should be? Why or why not?Needa Qamar in response to this Topic

It is highly encouraged to follow GAAP for managerial accounting and man y companies may follow it, but it is not necessary as it is for financial accounting. The Standards for managerial accounting are very broad and it’s a personal choice what is done and in which way. I don't think there has to be staves because every company or business is different and new ideas should be encouraged and no standards is the best way to explore them.

The only restriction conditions are expected to profit from using the information should be more than the cost of collection, analysis, and summarize the data.
