It reduces The sample consists of (60) persons in organization for throughput time, operating costs and inventory. The examining the hypotheses. The findings show that information provided by throughput accounting helps beginning of the transition period is in the mid- in measuring costs and evaluate the efficiency and seventies from the last century in the area of finance effectiveness of performance in the organization. This and administrative science inside Goldratt's writings. approach supports planning and control processes to In the early 1990s, Throughput Accounting emerged maximize throughput and reduce inventory levels. The as a result of the development of the Theory of use of Throughput Accounting under the Theory of Constraint. Management needs knowledge in the Constraints leads to finding solutions to bottlenecks modern manufacturing environment. Throughput that affect the efficiency and effectiveness of Accounting is one of the modern approaches to cost performance. measurement and performance assessment.
