Financial Accounting gives readers a solid foundation in the fundamentals of accounting and the basics of financial statements, and then builds upon that foundation to offer more advanced and challenging concepts and problems. The concepts and procedures that form the accounting cycle are also described and illustrated early in the text (Chapters 2 and 3), and are then applied consistently in the chapters that follow. This scaffolded approach helps students better understand the meaning and relevance of financial information, see its significance within a real-world context, and develop the skills needed to analyze financial information in both their courses and career.
