About the book
Global Financial Accounting and Reporting is a European-focused introductory financial accounting textbook for students encountering the subject for the first time at MBA and Masters level. Structured around European IFRS, the second edition of this text has been fully updated to cover recent changes to reporting standards and provides a concise and accessible guide to international financial reporting, heavily-supported by real-world examples from multinational company accounts.
Features
-
Takes a "user" perspective and is written in accessible English. "User" in this context means anyone who needs to read and understand the basics of accounting information, as opposed to actually preparing accounting information.
-
Teaches the basics of double entry through journal entries.
-
Adopts the Euro as the standard currency used for pedagogic examples and questions
-
Gives in-depth coverage of financial accounting
-
The user approach is reinforced by including a Part containing three chapters on financial statement analysis, and a chapter on advanced aspects of financial statement analysis.
-
Includes coverage of topics not commonly found in introductory texts, but necessary for an international approach, including: control and audit; foreign operations; fair value accounting; international taxation; auditing and corporate governance.
-
The book takes an international approach, based on globalisation of the world economy, the international financial reporting regime and references to the accounts of well-known European companies reporting in IFRS.
