Synopsis:

This is a comprehensive introductory textbook on management accounting for non-accountants on business degrees. The emphasis is firmly on management accounting as an analytical and interpretive tool for working managers: maths is kept to a minimum, and there is a wealth of features designed to maximize the book' s usefulness and student-friendliness.

The strong managerial approach is emphasised further by the inclusion of a 'Manager's Point of View' section in every chapter, providing students with a practical insight into the current business environment.
