Management Accounting: Analysis & Interpretation, with IDeA CD-ROM, NetTutor and Powerweb pckg.

Rating:
Summary: Best book for introductory level students
Review: This is the best alternative for those who want to understand what management accounting is about. Traditional books tend to focus on the decision making part (how to find some optimal solution for an accounting problem.). This book adds the control part: how to make a solution come true. The book integrates decision making and control. So often managers forget the control issues, this book explains why that happens, and what you can do.
The book makes you realize that much money can be earned in a consulting career. (This review refers to the 2nd, international edition.)
