Designed to present financial accounting in a one-sequence course in 2-year or 4-year colleges. The book can also effectively be used in a graduate-level financial accounting course for MBA students, who are from non-business major backgrounds.

The text presents the fundamentals of financial accounting using a unique cross-functional approach that demonstrates the relevance of accounting information to the various business functional areas (e.g., marketing, finance, and production).

Accounting majors will appreciate how accounting information contributes to the success of the firm and the decision-making of every member of the management team. Non-accounting majors will understand how accounting information contributes to their future job performance. Cross-functional applications are interwoven into the presentation of accounting fundamentals in each chapter. In addition, the book contains contemporary accounting issues related to ethics, information technology, and global commerce. The textbook features a chapter, as well as observations throughout the book, on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and how they differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

The textbook covers the key topics in financial accounting like most books in this field. The significant difference is the book’s cross-functional perspective that engages students by showing them how they will use financial accounting in their careers. The book is also unique in its integration of accounting ethics, global commerce, and technology.

The textbook includes a CD-ROM containing ancillary materials such as a Solution Manual, Test Bank, Study Guide (including chapter summaries and sample questions and problems), Working Papers in Excel, and Power Point Slides.

Provides guidance on the application of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes. It also addresses income tax-related paragraphs in certain other Codification topics, including Topic 805, Business Combinations, and Topic 980, Regulated Operations. This publication presents the author's interpretation on areas that have not been specifically addressed by the Codification or that require further explanation. The analysis in this publication is based on discussions with the staffs of the FASB and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), combined with lessons learned from leading accounting practitioners.

Appendix I includes a series of interpretations of income tax-related paragraphs that are located in other topics in the Codification. Appendix II, "Index of Accounting Literature Cited," includes cross-references to the interpretations that either refer to or incorporate the pre-Codification authoritative pronouncement or interpretive literature, in whole or in part, that was not codified by the FASB into its Codification.  The FASB decided to exclude “nonessential material, such as redundant summaries of existing standards, historical content, discussions of previous practice, summaries of constituent feedback, and similar content." However, we believe such information may be useful to readers of this publication. Appendix III contains recent examples reflecting how various U.S. public entities have disclosed the information required by Topic 740.

Explores the issues that arise when the current owners of a family business wish to retire or otherwise transfer ownership of the business. These issues include ensuring that the owners have enough money to retire on, providing for what will happen to the business – whether there will there be a transfer of ownership or whether the business will dissolve, providing for who will take over the management of the business and how ownership will be transferred. Discussing and resolving these issues within the family can also be complicated and contentious, depending on the family dynamics. Essentially, business succession can be broken down into three main categories:  management, ownership and taxes. This publication discusses the distinction between management and ownership, exploring the possibility of transferring the responsibility for managing the business to one child while transferring equal shares of business ownership to all children. Business succession planning also looks at the minimization of taxes upon death. This may involve asset transfer tax strategies, for example freezing the value of the business while transferring the ownership.
