The increasing costs of production and resource constraints have caused changes in the context and composition of costs. So, companies are not willing to impose costs for activities that are not worthwhile and they seek to remove them and create activities that are valuable. The use of modern cost management tools can provide value creation, provided that they are faced with environmental contingency factors inside and outside the company. So the purpose of this research, is to test the contingency model of influencing factors on the philosophy of value creation and the effective use of corporate resources. Research results are based on the data of 117 companies accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange for a specific time period of ten years (2009-2018), by using the structural equation modeling approach. Implying the effect, 8 contingency factors of human resources, economic environment, external environment, organizational strategy, technology, competitive environment, financial resources and senior management support are significant in using the information of management accountants for value creation and effective use of corporate resources, while 4 contingency factors do nothave a significant effect on the use of management accounting reports. Also, the conclusion Matrix Importance-Performance shows that attention to contingency factors competition power, new technologies, economic environment, ratio of R&D expenditures, the degree of compliance with environmental uncertainty, performance of human capital index and structures corporate governance is the key to creating double value in activities and effectiveness in resource utilization companies. Also, among the possible factors, technology and human resources have the most impact.

Contingency theory, raises the concept of proportionality between enterprise features and environmental factors.

H12: Human resources factor affects the uses of the fourth stage tools of management accounting evolution.
3- Methods
The method of research is correlation and causal. In order to investigate the issue, based on the structural equation model, the data of 117 companies that were accepted in TSE for a specific time period of ten years (2009-2018), were collected from the Rahavard Novin software, the Tehran Stock Exchange website, the Central Bank website and a standard questionnaire. The collected data was calculated using the Excel software and was analyzed by SmartPLS3. In order to analyze the hypothesis, importance-performance matrix and t-test have been used.
