financial and management accounting closure


Explanation:
I think "analytique" refers to management accounting, ie accounts used in decision making rather than for statutory reporting purposes. Depending on the context, you could also say 'year/period end'.

You also suggest "cost accounting", which is another possibility, though you can't repeat "accounting" as you do in your suggestion.

neutral  philgoddard: Like I said, you can't repeat "accounting". It's like saying "buses and red buses" - one is a subset of the other.

  -> Sorry! La comptabilite {generale} et la comptabilite analytique ne sont pas des sujets qui s'intersectent. L'une evalue les comptes du bilan, alors que l'autre determine les couts des biens et des services.
