This work introduces the two main sub-disciplines of accounting - financial and management accounting. It covers the main elements of both subjects and includes a variety of exercises within each chapter designed to promote understanding of the principles. The book is suitable for non-accountants as it is written for undergraduate and professional students on business and management courses where accounting isn't the main subject being undertaken.
