Description
Bruce Baldwin requires students to obtain and analyze live financial statements from publicly-traded firms. This work has been produced on the premise that other accounting textbooks can often use uncomplicated, make believe examples that isolate specific issues to illustrate a specific point. The result being that students do not learn that real financial statements do not always appear as neat and tidy as those in textbook examples. This text seeks to counter this point.
