Winner: Best Tertiary (Adaptation) Single Title - Australian Awards for Excellence in Educational Publishing 2008. The judges particularly praised the book as follows: "the wrap-around jacket is a really good feature with identification of the needs of students. The learning objectives are graded and the chapters are well structured. Everything is tied into the learning objectives and is graded accordingly". The new edition of this successful Australian adaptation retains a practical balance between accounting theory and practice. Taking a transaction analysis approach Accounting: What The Numbers Mean is ideally suited for the one?semester introductory accounting unit. These courses are typically taken by non-accounting majors, as well as postgraduate and MBA students. The strengths of the first edition - such as the clarity of the pedagogy and writing style - have been maintained. To aid learning, chapters have been streamlined and greater coverage of ratio analysis included, whilst debits and credits material has been retained in the appendix. |
