Disagree. Cost accounting is only part of management accounting and, in my opinion, it is too large a subject to be covered adequeately in a manageable article on management accounting. —Theo (Talk) 13:11, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
Disagree. Cost accounting is a specific subject that is well known and one that individuals may want to research particularly. Management accounting covers many areas, and generally evolves more as new methods of tracking and accounting are developed. Finally Cost Accounting has specific uses for goverment and contractor type work which separates it from management accounting which is generally geared primarily towards internal users of financial statements. See CASB for complete details on legislative involvement in this area. Augustz
