From the Back Cover
 
Business Accounting
is the world’s best-selling textbook on bookkeeping and accounting. It gives clear explanations, in straightforward language, with a wealth of worked examples and a large number of questions and answers. These features have made it for many years the number one choice for both students and lecturers. Literally millions of students have studied and passed accounting examinations using Business Accounting.
 
In the ninth edition of Volume 1, chapters have been updated to reflect changes in the accounting environment and two new chapters added on Computerised Accounting Systems and An Introduction to Management Accounting. The opportunity has been taken to transfer chapters on Bills of Exchange and Consignment Accounts to the Companion Website.
 
New pedagogical features:
  • Learning Outcomes linked to revised Learning Objectives;
  • Activities designed to broaden and reinforce students’ understanding of concepts;
  • Glossary defining key terms and concepts, referenced to the chapter in which they appear;
  • Sets of 20 multiple choice questions positioned in the book at relevant points, with answers given in Appendix 2;
  • Notes for Students to help them with their studies and examinations;
  • Two-colour design to emphasise key points.
 
The book gives an excellent grounding in financial accounting and is widely used on professional and secondary-level accounting courses. Students and lecturers choose Business Accounting because it gives:
  • comprehensive coverage of accounting principles;
  • a large number of worked examples, practice questions and answers to reinforce learning;
  • clear explanations in short chapters with logical progression.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GODSEND!! Recommended!!!, 14 April 2005
By A Customer
I have just begun my first year studying Accounting and Finance at university and have found the subject of Financial Accounting extremely difficult. Thanks to this book I am finding my own learning and revision periods are much easier and I am now understanding concepts which I hadnt a clue about in lectures! Thank you to the authors! One tiny issue with the book is that sometimes the double entry questions and examples used are not complex enough for what is needed at my level. Apart from that I recommend this book highly!

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK!!!!, 1 Dec 2002
I have just started studying account this year. I was really, really scared about how the subject was going to be. As it was, I found the subject really hard, but on top of that our teacher was really bad as well! But thank God, that our school had prescribed this book for the Year 10s! It has really helped. This book contains detailed explanations, plus multiple choice questions and loads of activities review questions. The answers of activities are written at the end of each chapter respectively.

Also, answers of alternative review questions are written at the back of the book. For me, one termed has passed, and I have studied wholly out of the book, and scored high marks! Three cheers for Frnk Wood and Alan Spanster!!!
