Short description
The main purpose of this title is to provide students with a sound knowledge of the theory and practice of accounting, as well as the fundamental skills needed to apply this information. The theoretical and conceptional approach is supplemented by an emphasis on the informational and reporting functions of accounting. An effort has been made to maintain a balance between an understanding of accounting and the ability to interpret and use accounting information effectively. Directed primarily at first-year students in the economics and management sciences, the book serves as a basic textbook and reference work for further studies in accounting.
