Management and cost accounting.
Livre
For over thirty-five years, Colin Drury?s Management and Cost Accounting has successfully blended theory and practice. Established as the leading text in the field, it helps students learn the key concepts and processes of management and cost accounting. Now in its twelfth edition, the text retains its trademark clear and accessible style, covering everything students need to know for their management accounting career and professional exams. Every chapter includes an ?Employability Skills? question, review problems from accounting examination bodies and recent real-world examples of well-known international organizations such as Netflix, Amazon and Apple. This edition includes new chapters on data analytics and environmental management accounting as well as expanded coverage of strategic performance and cost management, value creation and quality management. Drawing on his extensive experience, Mike Tayles continues to comprehensively revise Colin Drury's text.
