Financial Accounting

While many texts characterize themselves as having either a user approach or a preparer approach, Williams Financial Accounting is written for faculty who want to strike a balance between these approaches. Business majors will find relevance in the Ethics, Fraud & Corporate Governance, Your Turn and Case in Point boxes throughout the chapters while accounting majors will receive a firm grounding in accounting basics that will prepare them for their intermediate course. A unique feature is the multimedia companion, My Mentor. This text-specific technology resource (available free on the book s website) uses video clips, animated graphics, PowerPoints and Excel templates to demonstrate accounting concepts visually. This allows students to link concepts and numbers together in an interactive rather than print environment.
