Survey of Accounting is designed to cover both financial and managerial accounting topics in a one-semester non major course. The book focuses on decision-making by employing a Horizontal Financial Statements Model to show students how each business event impacts the financial statements.
The text focuses on managerial decision making and places a heavy emphasis on service and merchandising companies. This creates a more relevant and simplified learning environment making it easier for students to focus on budgeting concepts rather than procedural details. This unique approach shifts the focus from memorizing procedures to developing real-world thinking patterns and is easy for students to understand.
The title also offers a comprehensive set of instructional videos including an author-created video and quiz for each learning objective. This "Video Textbook" provides flexibility for both in person and online instruction.
