Pay Gains For Management Accountants – Especially Men

Management accountants earned an average salary of $101,805 and average total compensation of $120,972 last year, based on more than 1,500 responses to the Institute of Management Accountants' 2007 salary survey.

Average pay gained 6.2 percent. But pay was highly sensitive to gender, and the gap between male and female members' salaries and bonuses actually widened.

When JobsintheMoney asked the Institute's chief executive if his group planned any steps aimed at closing the salary gap, his response was: "We're not going to comment on the glass ceiling and the real or perceived inequities. We can make sure our association is open and inclusive and appealing to not only the old demographic or the new demographic."

Here's our story.
