2.0 Introduction

This paper will discuss employer perceptions of graduate students. It argues that

uncontrollable factors - in terms of external and internal organizational elements - affect the

evaluation of management performance. Since controllability levels can differ in each situation,

the impact on measures could be different too. There is not much debate on the value of

performance management, the effectiveness of the process or how organizations can use it to

build a high-performance workforce. However, it is a major concern for many organizations.

Decentralization is the dispersion of decision-making authority among individuals at lower levels

of the organization. Decentralization is getting broader and more common due to the high

complexity of organizations. In such a situation, managerial accounting is required to control

these kinds of decentralized organisations. To measure performance, responsibility accounting is

employed in many organisations. However, some key concepts in responsibility accounting lead

to various related problems, and some dysfunctional performance measurement can be found
