Essentials Of Accounting 7th Ed.

Description: This brief self-paced, programmed approach to financial accounting is appropriate for vocational, undergraduate, graduate, and executive level courses. Designed to help readers learn how to use and interpret accounting information, the text can be used by itself or in conjunction with computerized accounting, casebooks, or principles textbooks. It frees the professor from at least 5 class sessions in a conventional first course in accounting and is ideal for those entering or in the first weeks of an MBA program. The 2000 edition has been updated for currency, in-text dates, and now includes a new co-author, Leslie Pearlman.
