Fundamental Managerial Accounting Concepts 3e by Edmonds/Edmonds/Tsay focuses on
concepts that are isolated and introduced in a logical sequence. The authors intentionally
limit the scope of the material to help students build a solid foundation of the most
important concepts in managerial accounting. Fundamental Managerial Accounting Concepts 3e
is organized in a distinctive way, particularly in the first six chapters. The objective
is to establish a coherent, integrative framework that enables students to build knowledge
in stepwise fashion. The authors' goal is for students to understand the underlying
principles of accounting, not just memorize content.
