Abstract

Nowadays, the concept of business growth becomes a trend for some companies and,
for others, an obligation that makes their existence possible. Growing is thus a transcendental
issue in an organization because it may imply additional business risks. This paper presents the
connection between the suitability of making the decision to grow and the added value generated
by cost information for this kind of decision, through the influence of the latter on some variables
establishing growing advisability. Therefore, this article shows the importance and usefulness of cost
information to make business decisions.
