Financial accounting has its focus on the Financial Statements which are distributed to stockholders, lenders, financial analysts, and others outside of the company.

Managerial accounting has its focus on providing information within the company so that its management can operate the company more effectively.  Managerial accounting and Cost Accounting also provide instructions on computing the cost of products at a manufacturing enterprise.
