Importancia del reconocimiento de los costos ambientales como estrategia de la gestión empresarial
Importance of Recognition of Environmental Costs As Business Management Strategy
Abstract (en)
Currently the information related to cost, reported by the manufacturing companies, does not ensure a total association of the environmental costs of their production activities. The accumulation cycle cost, processing and circulation of the finished product does not reflect the environmental impacts because of they are not considered when designing a product or process and ensures traceability throughout the value chain among other considerations . This situation coupled with the lack of an environmental management system that links the company's costs with activities and initiatives for environmental improvement response needs generated from accounting information systems.

Actualmente la información reportada a partir de los costos en las compañías manufactureras no garantiza la asociación total de los costos ambientales derivados de sus actividades productivas. El ciclo de acumulación del costo, transformación y circulación del producto terminado no refleja los impactos ambientales producidos porque no son considerados a la hora de diseñar un producto o un proceso y no se asegura su trazabilidad a lo largo de la cadena de valor entre otras consideraciones. Esta situación, sumada a la carencia de un sistema de gestión ambiental que vincule los costos de la compañía con las actividades e iniciativas de mejora ambiental, genera necesidades de respuesta desde los sistemas de información contable.
