Research and Intellectual Interests

Bhimani's research led to the development of comparative management accounting as an independent research discipline.[7] He has conducted historical investigations on the emergence of accounting mechanisms indicative of the dependencies between structural accounting controls and cultural shifts over time.[8][9][10] His research on accounting determinants of default investigates the role of non-financial information in averting financial crises.[11][12] He has also investigated issues relating to accounting and digitization, artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data and analytics.[13]

His books discuss management accounting research, with reference to practical organizational innovations such as activity-based management, target costing, strategic management accounting and budgetary control systems. His co-authored book with Michael Bromwich, entitled Management Accounting: Evolution not Revolution (1989), discusses strategic investment appraisal[14][15][16][17]

Bhimani’s co-authored book with Bromwich, Management Accounting: Pathways to Progress (1994), talks about problems of maintaining a short-term and internally focused orientation to management accounting information in facing strong global competition.[18] It has received positive reviews, and considered as ‘rich’ and ‘diverse’ by The Accounting Review.[19][20][21] His book Management Accounting: Retrospect and Prospect (2009) [22] considers novel technological challenges faced by managerial accounting.

Bhimani's book Financial Management for Technology Start-ups (2022), discusses the financial and accounting know-how specific to running technology start-ups.[23] His book titled Accounting Disrupted: How Digitalization is Changing Finance [24] considers how digital technologies such as AI, robotic process automation, the Internet of Things, blockchains and business analytics systems are changing accounting work and the finance function.
