Description

Learn why accounting and finance matters and the key ideas in an easy-to-digest form Accounting and Finance for Non-Accounting Students, 11th edition provides a clearly explained introduction to the key ideas of accounting and finance in the business world, and why these matter. Assuming you have no previous knowledge of the subject, this book uses clear, accessible language, and makes frequent connections to real-life finance issues to bring the subject to life. The textbook provides information in a bitesize way and uses everyday examples of finance decisions like spending on coffee, saving or investing, and the impact of those decisions on personal wealth, to help you grasp the essential concepts before exploring them in the context of companies later in the book. This innovative approach will help prepare you with a solid grounding in the fundamentals that you'll need for your university education and in your career. Key features of the book include the coverage of personal and business finance, financial accounting and management accounting in a single text, plus "Check your Learning" sections which support active learning, and a wealth of news stories which feature businesses that you will immediately recognise, such as Tesla, Inter Milan, Marks & Spencer, Wizz Air and more.
