Financial Accounting, 8e helps students “nail” the accounting
cycle!
Financial Accounting helps students “nail” the accounting cycle up front in order to
increase success and retention later on. The concepts and mechanics students learn in the
critical ‘accounting cycle’ chapters are used consistently and repetitively–and with
clear-cut details and explanations–throughout the remainder of the text, minimizing
confusion. MyAccountingLab, the text’s online homework system, then provides students
with a personalized learning environment that tests and strengthens their skills and
understanding through unlimited practice. Together, Financial Accounting 8e and
MyAccountingLab will help students have more of those “I Get It!” moments.
A solid enhancement to already solid fundamentals, the eighth edition now features new
co-author Bill Thomas of Baylor University who brings his expertise on auditing, ethics,
and internal controls to key sections of the book.
