Synopsis
Provides readers with a broader view of accounting theory than can be provided by using only techniques and procedures. Primarily a descriptive interpretation of the Opinions and Standards issued by the Accounting Principles Board and the Financial Accounting Standards Board. It is descriptive of existing accounting theory--exploring it in depth--while critically examining alternatives to current practice. Through the use of research articles at the end of each chapter and supplemental readings, which provide additional discussion of complex material or a dissenting opinion from current generally accepted accounting principles, it also helps readers evaluate the conclusions reached by the APB and FASB.
