Abstract
Celem artykułu jest określenie łącznego wpływu typu interesariusza oraz istnienia zachęty na akceptację manipulacji w budżecie, a także ranking hierarchii pięciu potrzeb z piramidy Maslowa. Używając eksperymentu, dowiedziono, iż zachęta motywacyjna oraz typ interesariusza łącznie wpływają na akceptację manipulacji w budżecie. Specjaliści z zakresu rachunkowości zarządczej, doświadczając zachęty o charakterze niematerialnym oraz będąc w sytuacji, gdy manipulacje w budżecie przynieść mogą korzyści interesariuszom wewnętrznym, w większym stopniu akceptują manipulacje w budżecie. Respondenci, którzy nie akceptują manipulacji w budżecie, nadają najwyższe rangi potrzebom znajdującym się na szczycie piramidy Maslowa.(abstrakt oryginalny)

We aimed to investigate the joint effect of the type of incentive and stakeholder on the acceptance of budgetary slack and examine the rankings of the five needs in Maslow's pyramid. Using experimental research we demonstrated that motivational incentive and type of stakeholder interacted to affect the acceptance of budgetary slack. Management accountants experiencing non-monetary incentives in a situation where internal stakeholders' expectations can be met with budgetary slack, showed the highest acceptance of budgetary slack. Respondents not accepting budgetary slack as professional behaviour ranked higher the needs that are on the top of Maslow's pyramid.(original abstract)
