Synopsis
This exciting new text provides a balance between the preparer and user approaches to intermediate accounting. The shorter, less encyclopedic format emphasizes concepts, analysis, decision-making, ethics, and use of accounting information. Many real-world examples, as well as the Accounting Education Change Commission's (AECC) suggestions, such as communication and ethics issues, are incorporated throughout the text.
