This text covers the ways in which corporate financial statements influence the economic system. It considers the consequences of these data for those dependent on their credibility, as well as the methods used by competent statement users to interpret the data. The role of the auditor in corporate financial reporting issues is examined, as are basic financial statement analysis and the analysis of income. This edition includes expanded coverage of special financial reporting issues, long-term financial reporting and asset and expense reporting. Income and stockholders equity are also considered, and there are Harvard Cases throughout the text.

<b>ACCOUNTING: Text and Cases, 10/E</b> is a 28 chapter book. Chapters 1-14 cover financial accounting, while Chapters 15-21 cover management accounting, and Chapters 22-28 focus on broader issues of control and corporate strategy. The approximately 120 cases that largely make up the end-of-chapter material are a combination of classic Harvard style cases, as well as extended problems. New to this edition is the inclusion of 2-3 problems per chapter. These problems, while not as involved as the case material, allow the students to exercise the concepts demonstrated in each chapter. The goal of the problem material is to provide a transition to the case material, which is a response to customer requests.
