Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Financial Accounting: An Introduction presents an expansive and up-to-date treatment of an ever-important discipline. Without over-simplifying the subject, Augustine Benedict and Barry Elliott have created a progressive guide to financial accounting which tackles not only the fundamentals, but also includes coverage of new and emerging topics - chief among them IFRS. Comprehensive and rigorous, Financial Accounting encompasses a number of perspectives, ensuring that every aspect of each topic is examined in depth. Starting from the first concepts, the authors proceed to show how issues in financial accounting affect individuals, banking practices, sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies.
