Cost Accounting: Concepts and Applications for Managerial Decisions

This version maintains all that has made this book successful: a primary emphasis on the manufacturing environment; a clear focus on accounting procedures with the first half of the book covering product costing and the second covering evaluation and decision making; and excellent end-of-chapter material that thoroughly prepares the reader for the C.P.A. and C.M.A. exams. The addition of new material concentrates on current topics such as: just in time costs (JIT), constant flow manufacturing, costs associated within the service sector, queuing theory, planning and control of non-manufacturing costs, and more emphasis on material requirements planning (MRP). "Cost Accounting, 3/e" includes the latest material on computerized management information systems (integrated throughout the book), and features a new introductory chapter on computerized management systems.
