Synopsis

Century 21 Accounting Celebrates 95 Years of Excellence! South-Western's 95 years of accounting leadership is the culmination of generations of commitment to teacher and student needs. Why do thousands of teachers choose Century 21 Accounting each year? Content The fundamental accounting content you've come to trust from South-Western remains in the Seventh Edition. Illustration Placement Students often use the illustrations as the starting point for understanding accounting. To meet this need, our illustrations are consistently placed at the top of the page and include step-by-step instructions. The supporting text reinforces concepts presented in the illustrations for complete accounting instruction. South-Western is the only publisher that covers all three concepts of the accounting cycle. The General Journal Approach begins with a single journal, then introduces students to special journals in Cycle Two, with a continuation of special journals in Cycle Three. Individual Lessons Each chapter is divided into three or four lessons with corresponding assessment activities right at the point of use. These focused lessons improve student comprehension by providing immediate reinforcement of accounting concepts. Automated Accounting in Every Chapter Computerized accounting is a reality in the workplace, and we've responded by moving Automated Accounting sections into every chapter. Students can immediately see the connection between accounting concepts and their automated applications. Many Short Problems In addition to the new end-of-lesson problems, we have introduced several short application problems at the end of each chapter. Students have the opportunity to build their knowledge one step at a time before completing the longer mastery and challenge problems. Century 21 Accounting General Journal Approach begins with a single general journal, then introduces students to special journals in Cycle Two.
