Weygandt helps corporate managers see the relevance of accounting in their everyday lives. Challenging accounting concepts are introduced with examples that are familiar to them, which helps build motivation to learn the material. Accounting issues are also placed within the context of marketing, management, IT, and finance. The new Do It feature reinforces the basics by providing quick-hitting examples of brief exercises. The chapters also incorporate the All About You (AAY) feature as well as the Accounting Across the Organization (AAO) boxes that highlight the impact of accounting concepts. With these features, corporate managers will learn the concepts and understand how to effectively apply them.
This book supplies all of the working papers for every problem posed in the Financial Accounting with Annual Report, 5th Ed. The beauty of the papers, which you will probably never use up in your entire lifetime, is that if you pull out the page applicable to your assignment, you'll quickly see if you forgot to include something. For example, if you are journalizing entries and you end up with six lines, you know that you forgot something because the papers are designed to give you just enough room to finish each assignment. Several times the papers saved me in just this manner before I turned in my assignments. Now, if I could just figure out what to do with the remaining papers.
Great book!
