INTRODUCTION

Although the realm of accounting and finance has often

been viewed as dull bean counting, in todays modern and
competitive business environment, the finance department
should be at the heart of any company, encompassing a variety
of functions that go beyond its traditional financial reporting role.
While it is still a priority for accountants to ensure a companys
financial statutory accounts meet legal requirements, dynamic
companies such as McDonalds have shifted the focus of their
accounting and finance function to additionally include the
evaluation of past performance and appraisal of future
opportunities, helping to ensure the
Company maximises its strategic capabilities.

McDonalds Restaurants UK Limited, a wholly owned

subsidiary of the U.S. parent company, opened its first UK
restaurant in Woolwich in 1974. There are now 1,200 restaurants
operating in the UK which, despite representing only 4% of the
total number of McDonalds restaurants worldwide, contribute 7%
of global profits, making the UK a very important financial market
for McDonalds shareholders.
