Accounting Information Systems: Concepts and Practice for Effective Decision Making

This textbook for business undergraduates integrates accounting principles and concepts into today's business information systems. This edition has been revised to include an extensive discussion of decision support systems and a new chapter on coding and flowcharting. There are many case studies and sample problems, and the computer supplement has been expanded to reflect the most recent developments in computer hardware and software. The text employs a prototype organization to examine accounting information systems subject by subject, including management concepts in relation to accounting information systems, the flow of data within an information system, internal control systems and a systems life-cycle analysis.
