CCH's Forensic and Investigative Accounting (4th Edition) is a complete and readily teachable text on today's most timely accounting topics. Forensic accounting is a growing area of practice in which the knowledge, skills and abilities of advanced accounting are combined with investigative expertise and applied to legal problems. Written by three top accounting and forensic teachers, Forensic and Investigative Accounting covers all the important underpinnings, as well as the substance of forensic accounting. It covers both litigation support and investigative accounting, examining the practical aspects of these two areas, as well as many of the newer technological areas.
