Synopsis

Offering a concise introduction to financial accounting and assuming no prior knowledge, Financial Accounting is an ideal introduction to the subject. The book is equally well suited for students who intend to continue studies in professional accounting as it is for students intending to specialise in other branches of business and management science. The book takes an interactive approach with self-check questions and exercises, with answers to facilitate self-paced learning and to engage student interest. The book also provides a flexible resource for lecturers. Financial Accounting considers the European context of accounting.
 
The second edition has been thoroughly updated to take account of recent changes in the field of financial accounting, and real world examples from company accounts are included throughout.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Financial Accounting

Third edition

By Anne Britton and Chris Waterston

Financial Accounting

successfully combines an academic, conceptual approach to the subject with an accessible, student-friendly and interactive style. The text adopts a questioning attitude to the subject, asking why accounting practices exist and how they work, without lingering on the technicalities. The third edition has been revised to update existing material, especially for FRS 18, and to introduce new topic areas, notably e-accounting and the increasingly important issue of revenue recognition.

Increased in length, depth and coverage, for those who favour the �??why�?? over �??how to�?? approach, Financial Accounting is now the ideal introductory core text for first-year financial accounting students.

New to the third edition

• New topic areas have been introduced including e-accounting and revenue recognition.
• A greatly increased variety of self-assessment questions and exercises, with answers, to facilitate self-paced learning.
• All chapters now include a list of key terms highlighted in the text.
• Glossary of key definitions.

A companion website supports this book, providing a full resource pack for both lecturers and students, including downloadable lecturers' material, further questions with answers, a list of suggested web links and a bank of self-marking multiple-choice questions for students.

Financial Accounting

is ideally suited for students taking accounting courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. This book will also be a suitable introduction to the subject for those who intend to continue studies in professional accounting.

Anne Britton is Assistant Dean and Head of School of Accounting and Finance at Leeds Metropolitan University, and Chris Waterston is a Principal Lecturer in the same School. They are both experienced teachers and writers.
