Financial Accounting: Information for Decisions

Bruce Baldwin; Robert W. Ingram

ISBN: 9780324069549
Publisher: South-Western Pub
Publication Date: 2000
Binding: Hardcover

In this inspired new edition, the authors illustrate accounting not as a set of technical procedures to be memorized, but as a way of identifying and understanding business problems and a means for evaluating potential solutions. Now in its fourth edition, the primary goal of this text remains the same-teach readers to understand the impact of accounting information on a company's financial statements. This unique organization introduces readers to the accounting information system and then emphasizes accounting for the activities of the firm in the second half of the book. This engages readers in the type of financing, investing and operating decisions that a firm has to make. The approach is especially ideal for readers who will become users of accounting information because concepts-not procedures-are emphasized.

The Financial Reporting Project and Readings

Bruce Baldwin; Clayton Hock

ISBN: 9780324125801
Publisher: South-Western Pub
Publication Date: 2001
Binding: Softcover

Baldwin requires users to obtain and analyze "live" financial statements from publicly-traded firms. Accounting textbooks often use uncomplicated, make believe examples that isolate specific issues to illustrate a specific point. The result is that readers do not "learn" that "real" financial statements do not always appear as neat and tidy as those in textbook examples.
