Description

This work is written from a managerial perspective for general managers on executive or MBA courses, and it is also appropriate for undergraduate business students. It focuses on accounting from the viewpoint of the needs of managers for financial information and understanding. The text covers the full range of accounting theory and practice of relevance to the general manager, avoiding technical aspects that are only of interest to accountants. It explores financial and management accounting from a management perspective, and relates accounting to practical management problems and decisions drawn both from the business world and from the public sector. The book minimizes the use of technical language, explains technical terms and includes an extensive glossary. Questions, for discussion or revision, and exercises are included at the end of chapters.
