ISBN: 9781742166148
Management Accounting, 2nd Edition has been revised in response to changes in the global business environment. Unbridled access to information, intense competition and ongoing challenges in the corporate world have meant that cost accounting has become an increasingly important tool for managers and accountants alike. Most textbooks focus on content knowledge and then expect you to ‘magically’ demonstrate skills such as decision-making and critical thinking.
The textbook is written in a style that is accessible and includes chapter scene setters, realistic illustrative examples, self-study problems and unique problem material structured to encourage you to think about accounting problems and problem-solving more complexly.
Features

- NEW Chapter 20: Sustainability management accounting – discusses the integrated value of sustainability to a business and how its connection to performance. The chapter includes current topics of sustainability enterprise governance and carbon accounting and management control.
