Accounting For Managers: Interpreting Accounting Information for Decision-making

A new edition of a successful textbook on how accounting information is used by non-financial managers!



This revised and updated third edition of Accounting for Managers builds on the success of the previous two editions in explaining how non-financial managers use accounting information. Accounting for Managers emphasises the interpretation rather than the construction of accounting information and encourages a critical, rather than unthinking acceptance of the underlying assumptions behind accounting. It links theory with practical examples and case studies drawn from real life business situations across a range of industries.
