Synopsis:

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING is designed to prepare users to succeed as future business managers by emphasizing the business context of accounting, the interaction between accounting and business, and financial statement analysis. This text demonstrates how financial statements are useful and interesting tools for diagnosing a company's problems or strengths, and for making loan, investment, acquisition, employment and political decisions. Using actual financial statements the authors leverage students' everyday consumer experiences to link accounting terminology and practice with actual events that they already understand. Lastly, Journal Entries and the Accounting Cycle are de-emphasized they're not covered until chapter 7 and after that they are only used sparingly.

Review: "The sidebars were interesting and applicable. The end of chapter questions, exercises, and problems provide good coverage of the material and sufficient variation. I also liked the sequencing of the chapters." "I like the chapters included and how they are organized for a typical 15-week course. The organization suits how I teach my course. Students find the text easy to read. Students like the additional features such as Data Mining and Business Context."
