Business Accounting Reviews

A coherent, fluid, concise and well developed accounting book for both beginners in accounting and non-accounting students. The great thing about this book is that it is simply written and has a lot of examples, activities and revision questions along with innovative proposed topics for student dissertations for each chapter/topic covered. A fantastic book overall. * Ourania Dimitraki, University of Bedfordshire Business School, UK *
We already use the previous edition of Business Accounting for both our business and social entrepreneurship students, and both groups of students are happy with the book. Its very good to see that the new edition now includes a dedicated chapter on cash flow statements - we look forward to using this and the rest of the new text in our teaching. * Lone Samuelsson, Roskilde University, Denmark *
This latest edition of Business Accounting covers all fundamental accounting principles and practices in the context of modern business. It offers a comprehensive list of management accounting topics, coupled with real-life examples, case studies and financial data. This textbook would be an ideal choice for those who teach business accounting for non-specialists at undergraduate or postgraduate level. * Ricky Li, Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK *
