Conclusions and Policy Implications As the business development of the business grows, the higher the level of decentralization and decentralization of the business unit. Research shows that as the size of the business grows, the application of accounting aspects of responsibility accounting becomes clearer. Once the powers and responsibilities are clearly defined, management structures will appear and each will create a range of responsibilities in which individuals can make their own decisions. Accountants provide information that helps executives accomplish their tasks assigned to achieve common goals of the business. First and foremost, cement manufacturing enterprises should pay close attention to management accounting in general and accountability in particular. In addition to businesses that are interested in accountancy, there are also companies that do not pay sufficient attention to the tools of accounting management responsibility in the enterprise. This actually makes it difficult for the enterprise itself in the process of operating and managing the business. Therefore, accounting for corporate responsibility is very important for the survival and development of enterprises in the current competitive conditions as fierce. The results of the study show that the higher the level of management, the higher the tendency to apply accountancy in order to improve the performance of enterprises, improve the competitiveness of enterprises. Therefore, raising the knowledge and training level of the managers in the cement production enterprises is very necessary. Therefore, Vietnamese cement manufacturers need to work closely with universities and training institutions in the training of students. Enterprises should cooperate to help schools to practice skills for learners, to create conditions for students to practice, to practice, even to work part-time. It is necessary to create conditions for students to study, study and practice right in the finance and accounting sections of enterprises. Cement enterprises should also be involved in teaching and learning activities in the school: To contribute ideas to the development of plans, programs for human resources training, accountancy and supply Data, actual data on accountability for training closely with the actual work of the business. 284 5.
