Principles Of Accounting Tools For Business Decision Making, With Annual Report, Peachtree Complete Accounting

This text helps students hit the road with a practical set of tools, and the confidence they need to use those tools effectively in making business decisions. The goal is to introduce a new Principles of Accounting text that better reflects a more conceptual and decision-making approach to the material.The authors have taken a new "macro- to micro-" approach to the Principles of Accounting course by starting with a discussion of real financial statements first, rather than starting with the Accounting Cycle (although the Accounting Cycle is thoroughly covered in Chapters 3 and 4). The objective is to establish how a financial statement communicates the financing, investing, and operating activities of a business to users of accounting information. They motivate students by grounding the discussion in the real world, showing them the relevance of the topics covered to their future career.Weygandt, Jerry J. is the author of 'Principles Of Accounting Tools For Business Decision Making, With Annual Report, Peachtree Complete Accounting', published 2004 under ISBN 9780471084822 and ISBN 0471084824.
