Accounting for Sustainability

Companies are faced with the question of how to integrate the issue of sustainability into their operations. They are often accused of only superficially addressing these new values. In this class, we will therefore examine which departments and business units are typically involved and how they address and report on sustainability. Here, we will focus on how the accounting and management control functions are involved in these measures.
