Because it emphasizes the uses of managerial accounting information, this text for an introductory course is appropriate for accounting majors and also for students in other business majors
such as marketing, management, and finance, and in non-business majors such as engineering and mathematics. The text assumes one or two terms of financial accounting or exposure to basic
financial statements. For this tenth edition, material on statement of cash flows and analysis of financial statements is omitted. Internet references to real companies are included throughout
the text. Louderback is affiliated with Clemson University; Holmen, with the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
