The fourth edition of Accounting in a Business Context provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to accounting and finance for students on business and business-related courses. Fully revised and up-dated, it offers the ideal balance of coverage of financial accounting, management accounting and finance topics. Presented in a readable and accessible way using numerous real world examples, this highly popular text is the most complete text on the market for students from non-accounting disciplines. By focusing on how managers use information in the business world, rather than how accountants prepare it, the authors successfully covey the role of accounting in its wider managerial setting without burdening the student with unnecessary technical detail or accounting jargon. The book is pedagogically well developed and includes learning objectives, exercises, examples, case studies, diagrams, summaries, review questions, and a companion website to supplement the text. This ever-popular text enjoys a wide readership amongst students taking an introductory course in accounting and finance at both undergraduate and taught postgraduate level.

<p>Smart Strategies Series Sussland presents a template of an integrated methodology that enables management to revisit the management system in place and to introduce the appropriate shared management practices. The original management map he has developed - The Process of Management - contains four sub-processes, namely: the Policy Fundamentals that show the interactions between the factors that constitute the strategic profile of the enterprise and influence its strategic manoeuvrability the Policy Dynamics that expand on the Hoshin planning method to ensure effective deployment of strategies and of the strategic resources while structuring the participative interactions among the various levels of management the Policy Implementation and Review that emphasise the interdependencies between the business enablers in the operations (action plans, strategic resources, processes, products, partners) the Policy Assessment, operative management?s annual review of the performance of the business enablers, is complemented by senior management?s Policy Audit that estimates the strategic resources that make up the business value The combination of Policy Dynamics and of Policy Audit contributes to more efficient communications between the management levels; the combination of the four sub-processes foster shared management practices and can be used as a program of corporate revitalisation.</p>
