Research Interests
Steve Lyne's main research interests are in organisational management accounting, particularly the use of activity-based techniques, budgeting techniques, and management accounting in education. He is currently writing a book based on an eight-year study into the use of activity-based techniques. In October 2002 a study into the 'Changing Use of Company Budgets' commenced, from which various papers and a monograph are in process. Both of these studies have been funded by CIMA.
