Abstract

This paper aims to systematically study the multifaceted role of management accounting within the framework of enterprise financial risk management, with a specific focus on its practical implications and operational mechanisms. Through a comprehensive synthesis of extant literature review and an in-depth case study, this paper examines how Starbucks apply management accounting tools to help its management enhance the abilities of cost-control, decision-making and recourse allocation to respond to financial risks. The findings suggest that management accounting plays a crucial role in cost control and budget management when firms experience financial risks. However, there remains room for improvement in its practical application. In the future, firms can integrate advanced technologies, such as big data analytic and artificial intelligence, into management accounting to address financial risks. This study provides insights that can help firms better apply management accounting tools to prioritize high-value operations and reduce inefficient expenditures, thereby strengthening financial stability and mitigating insolvency risks during periods of financial stress.
