Description

Peter Scott's Accounting for Business provides a refreshingly clear and accessible introduction to the core accounting topics that non-specialist students need to master. A combination of supportive learning features and a wealth of online resources provide the perfect package for those students getting to grips with accounting for the first time. Plentiful examples and the hallmark 'why is this relevant to me' feature highlight the relevance of accounting concepts and techniques, helping students to apply what they've learnt to real business scenarios every step of the way. The unique online workbook includes the following features for students: · Interactive multiple choice questions for revising key topics; · Numerical exercises for practicing the calculation of accounting information from given sets of data; · 'Go back over this again' feature containing a mix of further examples, written exercises, true or false questions, and annotated accounting information to help consolidate learning; · 'Show me how to do it' videos, which provide practical demonstrations of more complex accounting tasks; · Web links to primary source material and articles, which provide further learning opportunities around companies and organizations covered in the book.
