The active and lively approach makes this accounting book, which is specifically written for business and management students, the most applied in its subject matter.
Sam Smart is the emerging entrepreneur upon whom the book's case study is based. At the beginning of each chapter, we follow Sam as he starts a small business offering sports equipment to local teams until he runs a global sports enterprise. Throughout the book, he examines the success of his business, funds activities, makes pricing decisions, opens new branches, examines liquidity, and facilitates planning, control, and investments.
As we follow the case study, the basic concepts of accounting are covered with clarity and relevance, providing students with the support they need to complete their education and exams with confidence. The multitude of additional examples and self-assessment exercises available alongside the case study allows students to not only develop an appreciation of how accounting information enables a manager to make critical business decisions but also to acquire the necessary skills to engage with accountants and challenge their assumptions and methodologies.
