Welcome to Financial & Managerial Accounting for Undergraduates!

We wrote this book to satisfy the needs of students taking an introductory course in financial and managerial accounting by providing a high quality, contemporary, and engaging textbook at an affordable price. Financial & Managerial Accounting for Undergraduates is written for students who want to understand how financial statements are prepared and how the information in published financial reports is used. It will also introduce students to management accounting concepts and decision making tools that will help them become effective managers in an increasingly competitive global market. The publication of this text has benefited from extensive feedback and suggestions from focus groups, market surveys, manuscript reviews, and interviews with faculty from across the country.

Target Audience

Financial & Managerial Accounting for Undergraduates is intended for use in the financial and managerial accounting courses at the undergraduate level; courses that balance the development of financial statements and management accounting tools with their interpretation and use in decision making. This book teaches students how to read, analyze, and interpret financial and managerial accounting data to make informed business decisions.

We believe students become more engaged in the course when they see how the content pertains to their future careers. Once engaged in the course, students perform much better and enjoy the class more. Furthermore, we believe accounting is a discipline best learned by doing. Unlike some other disciplines, accounting needs to be practiced. Consequently, we took great care to incorporate a number of pedagogical devices and real examples that illustrate the relevance of financial and managerial accounting to professional careers.

Relevance

“Why do I need to study accounting?”

Students frequently ask this or similar questions. The extent to which they feel accounting is relevant to their daily lives will often determine how much effort they put into the course. The following features are used throughout the book to convey the relevance of accounting to their lives and society.

Real Data and Examples

Today’s students must be skilled in using real financial statements and accounting information to make business decisions. Through their exposure to various financial statements, students will learn that, while financial statements do not all look the same, they can readily understand and interpret them to make business decisions. In each financial accounting chapter, we incorporate a wide range of examples using real companies that students know. In addition, the Extending Your Knowledge section in the assignments of each financial accounting chapter requires students to use the financial statements of Columbia Sportswear Company and Under Armour Corporation.

The managerial accounting chapters of the text also incorporate a wide range of examples using real companies such as Microsoft, Amazon and Google. The Service Industry in Focus section in the assignments of each managerial accounting chapter requires the students to use the financial and operational data of a fictitious consulting company, Environmental Business Consultants, LLC, to address real business issues. Most managerial accounting chapters also include real-world examples from Fezzari, a custom bike manufacturer.

Accounting in Practice

These boxed inserts help bridge the gap between the classroom and what students encounter in the real world. Accounting In Practice illustrations document situations a reader is likely to encounter and present the choices that companies face in reporting financial results and making decisions.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Increasingly, companies have found that “doing good” leads to a more successful, profitable enterprise. These boxed inserts help students understand how corporate social responsibility is being embraced by forward-thinking enterprises as part of their long-term business models.

Additional Features

Additional features included throughout the text emphasize the relevance of the current environment of business on accounting concepts.

Features included in the financial accounting chapters:

  • Principle Alert boxes discuss upcoming or new accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting
  • principles.
  • Forensic Accounting boxes highlight how financial accounting knowledge can help aid in the prevention of errors and fraud.
  • Thinking Globally boxes emphasize the similarities and differences in business practices between companies in the U.S. and companies in other countries.
  • IFRS Alert boxes examine issues related to similarities and differences in the reporting standards under U.S. GAAP and IFRS.

Features included in the managerial accounting chapters:

  • Service Industry margin callouts identify the sections of the text that apply managerial accounting concepts to the service industry.
  • Service Industry in Focus cases provide students an opportunity to apply what they learned within a service industry situation.
  • Decision Time boxes help students look beyond the accounting numbers to see the importance of other business information in making the best decision.

Success

Accounting can be challenging—especially for students lacking business experience or previous exposure to business courses. To help students succeed in their accounting courses, we provide a wealth of resources through our online learning and homework systems, myBusinessCourse (MBC), and through pedagogical devices used throughout the textbook.

Putting each chapter in context

Often, students lose sight of the big picture. The Past/Present/Future feature provides students with an overview of where the chapter fits within the whole course.

Mapping each chapter

Each chapter begins with an overview that visually depicts the layout of the chapter.

Your Turn!

Your Turn boxes are integrated throughout each chapter as a means of reinforcing the material just presented. Solutions are provided at the end of the chapter so students can check their work.

A.K.A. Boxes

A.K.A. (Also Known As) boxes inform students of commonly used alternative terms that they may encounter.

Hints 

Helpful suggestions are inserted in the margin as Hints to help students understand difficult topics.

Ethics

Enron, WorldCom, Waste Management, Bernie Madoff, and other high-profile incidents of fraud highlight the consequences of unethical decisions made by real people facing difficult challenges in businesses today. Although most students will not face such significant decisions, they will certainly be confronted with day-to-day decisions that have ethical implications and could lead to more serious challenges. For example, students may be tempted to inflate chargeable hours when performance evaluations and bonuses are based on achieving a target level of chargeability. We discuss ethics where appropriate in the textbook, including an assignment in most chapters that raises an ethical issue. Assignments involving ethics are identified by the icon in the margin.
