Abstract:
This study investigates the role of management accounting in sustainability reporting in Lagos State, Nigeria. The objectives are to: (1) evaluate how management accounting practices support sustainability reporting, (2) assess the impact of sustainability reporting on organizational transparency and stakeholder trust, and (3) analyze the challenges faced by organizations in integrating sustainability reporting into management accounting. A survey design was chosen for its ability to gather comprehensive data from financial managers and sustainability officers. The sample size, calculated using Taro Yamane's formula, ensures representativeness with a 95% confidence level and a 5% margin of error. Dangote Group was selected as the case study due to its commitment to sustainability and extensive reporting practices. The reliability coefficient score of the survey was 0.94. Findings indicate that management accounting significantly enhances sustainability reporting, improving organizational transparency and stakeholder trust. However, challenges such as data integration and the complexity of sustainability metrics were noted. It is recommended that companies in Lagos State invest in robust management accounting systems and training to effectively integrate sustainability reporting and improve organizational transparency.
