Article Abstract:

The management approach to segment information reporting as proposed by the Accounting Standards Board (AcSB) has its benefits and drawbacks. This approach is expected to reveal more detailed segment data by concerned businesses, lower data production costs and increase its availability. However, segments based on internal management framework may not be comparable among businesses and the goal of full disclosure of output and revenues may not always be achieved.
