Financial Accounting: An Introduction offers CA stream students a strong conceptual framework in preparation for further studies in Accounting, while teaching non-CA stream students financial literacy, a skill that will benefit them in both their personal and professional lives. The book does not simply teach the accounting standards; it demonstrates that accounting is about how to as well as why to record and report information in a way that engages directly with Generation Y students.
