Summary: "Business is always changing: new technologies, new models, new global competitors. And students, despite being more technologically adept every year, need a framework for all of that change so that they can hit the ground running in their careers. To keep up, managers must be able to interpret the rapid flow of information and make the right decisions. Assisted by the tools of managerial accounting, and by managerial accounting professionals, managers will work side by side in global, cross-functional teams to make the complex decisions that today's dynamic business environment requires of them. The goal of Managerial Accounting is to acquaint students of business with the fundamental tools of managerial decision making and to provide a context for understanding and reacting to the dramatic ways in which business is changing. The emphasis throughout the text is on using accounting information to help manage an organization, while explaining concepts in a way that students can relate to. They should not only be able to produce accounting information, but also understand how managers are likely to use and react to the information in a range of businesses"-- Provided by publisher.
