Cost Management: Accounting And Control

The second edition of this popular text presents a thorough treatment of both traditional and contemporary approaches to cost management, accounting, and control. Professional ethics, behavioral issues, a service sector focus, and real-world examples make this text ideal, as students benefit from understanding the business world before they actually enter it. A full chapter on international issues is also included. For both undergraduate and MBA level courses, the text uses a systems framework that makes comprehension easier for students.
