Designed for use in introductory or graduate-level managerial accounting courses, this text applies an objective-based approach to managerial accounting topics. Unlike traditional
cost-accounting texts, Management Accounting emphasizes the critical role that information plays in decision making, strategy execution, and overall enhancement of a firm’s value. Through
problem-based learning and the business planning model (BPM), Management Accounting develops in students those competencies expected of today’s business professionals. This innovative
pedagogical approach stresses the understanding and application of the basic business process; risk assessment and its relation to business strategy; critical thinking, reasoning, and analysis;
oral and written communication skills; and techniques for team building.
