“There are many definitions of accounting, but the one that captures the theme of this book is the definition formulated by the American Accounting Association. It describes accounting as: the process of identifying, measuring and communicating economic information to permit informed judgements and decisions by users of the information. In other words, accounting is concerned with providing both financial and non-financial information that will help decision-makers to make good decisions. In order to understand accounting, you need to know something about the decision-making process, and also to be aware of the various users of accounting information. During the past two decades many organizations in both the manufacturing and service sectors have faced dramatic changes in their business environment.” Colin Drury is Emeritus Professor at Huddersfield University and a leading textbook author for a generation of accounting students. His books have been widely recommended by the main UK professional accountancy bodies for their examinations. He has been an active researcher and his research has been published in peer-reviewed journals including Management Accounting Research and European Accounting Review. Colin has been given a life-time achievement award by the British Accounting and Finance association.
