Unlike other government and not-for-profit books, this one is directed to potential users rather than preparers of financial reports. The emphasis is on demonstrating the significance of reported information and how users can interpret and analyze accounting information.
Orlando Science Center (featured on the cover of this text) is not only a highly successful not-for-profit organization, it's also located in the first city to incorporate the latest GASB pronouncements!

Now packaged with a free CD-ROM containing Orlando's comprehensive annula financial report (CARF) for 2000, Granof's Second Edition of GOVERNMENT AND NOT-FOR-PROFIT ACCOUNTING takes a fresh look at the unique features of governmental and not-for-profit accounting. The new edition is also completely revised and updated with:

The latest GASB pronouncements through Statement No. 36 and Interpretation No. 6

The new accounting model, which is integrated throughout the text

You can use the accompanying CD-ROM to search Orlando's CAFR, to obtain hands-on experience in reviewing and analyzing data, and to solve the continuing problem that appears at the end of every chapter in the book.
