Title overview
For courses in Introductory Accounting.
Essentials of Accounting is a workbook that provides a self-teaching and self-paced introduction to financial accounting for active users of business data. This text presents the ideas and terminology essential to understanding balance sheets, income statements, and statements of cash flows in a unique format that enables students to study and learn with ease.
Essentials of Accounting is best used when paired with the Core Concepts of Accounting, which captures the full text (but not the programmed approach) of Essentials of Accounting, while including important accounting concepts and terms.
Split-page Design: The unique format of this text enables students to study and learn with ease. All they have to do is cover the right-hand side of the page, work through the problems on the left-hand side, and then check their workbook. This method is ideal for comprehension.
Book has unique reversal of pages in the later chapters. This design was conceived as a way to allow the answer column to always appear in the right margin. The book is completed front to back, then inverted and completed back to front
Provide the Basics: Essentials of Accounting presents the ideas and terminology essential to an understanding of balance sheets, income statements, and statements of cash flows. An ideal introduction/review, this supplemental text frees up professors from at least five class sessions in a conventional first course in accounting.
