Product Description
Accounting: Text & Cases is a product of lifelong dedication to the discipline of accounting. Covering both financial and managerial accounting as well as broader managerial issues, the book incorporates a breadth of experience that is sure to enrich your course and your students. The approximately 109 cases that make up most of the end of chapter material are combination of classic Harvard style cases and extended problems, with 12 complete new cases added to the 13th edition.
The text is covered as two parts. Part 1 deals with chapters 1 -14 which cover financial accounting, while part 2 covers Chapters 15-28 which in essence is associated with management accounting. The tale end of part 2 also focuses on broader issues of control and corporate strategy. Both parts have been updated to reflect the current changes relevant to Accounting.

Comprehensive but surprisingly relevant, Aug 19 2011

This review is from: Accounting: Texts and Cases (Hardcover)
Accounting: Texts and Cases is not your ordinary accounting text book. It successfully do away with the serious-type discussion that elicits a lot of zzzz's while reading. This book has combined detailed story-like presentation of issues and topics making Accounting concepts easier to understand. Numerous real-life examples and illustrations make the concepts more relevant.How I hope that more textbooks are written this way. It gives learning a new twist making study more interesting. Again, after a long while, we find books like this that we wish we could keep beside our work tables to be used in the future. Curiously, the large space in the margins also provides a thoughtful space for comments and insights. Truly, this book has been designed to become a significant tool in learning accounting.
I've never look at accounting the way this book presented it. Quite satisfied and delighted with it.

Comprehensive financial management text. The only advice I would give is to purchase a finances terminology text as well. THe text is written like the reader already understands the lingo, so if one does not, a support source will help.
