Preface
Welcome to Financial Accounting! We wrote this book for today’s business students. It reflects our combined experience in teaching financial accounting to college students at all levels. For anyone who pursues a career in business, the ability to read, analyze and interpret published financial reports is an essential skill in today’s business environment. Financial Accounting is written for future business leaders who want to understand how financial statements are prepared and how the information in published financial reports is used by investors,
creditors, financial analysts, and managers. Our goal is to provide the most up-to-date, engaging, accessible, and user-oriented textbook available.
“This book is very well laid out and addresses topics that have high appeal to audiences beyond accounting majors (I think that this is important for an intro text).”
—Matt Anderson, Michigan State University
“Clear, complete and with great end-of-chapter materials.”
—Susan Parker, Santa Clara University
