Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This easy-to-read accounting theory text contains two distinct, but integrated parts. Part One focuses on two interwoven topics: accounting theory formulation and standard setting in a chronological format. This section analyzes the major historical efforts attempted in the development of an accounting theory. The Conceptual Framework project is studied, and the FASB and how it influences current standard setting is examined. Part Two covers contemporary financial reporting issues as they relate to the FASB's Conceptual Framework. Controversial accounting areas, such as cash flows, accounting for pensions, post-employment benefits and stock options, are studied within the context of the definitions of assets and liabilities provided by the Conceptual Framework. Interesting and challenging cases provide the reader with practical experience in applying accounting theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores the developing challenges and opportunities within the business and finance world which are likely to impact the accounting profession in the near future. It outlines a number of approaches to ensure that the accountants of the future are equipped with a useful awareness of some of the key topic areas that are quickly becoming a reality and helps bridge the gap between academia and practice. The chapters are standalone introductory pieces to provide useful précis of key topics and how they apply to the accounting profession in particular. It aims to deliver key readings on ‘hot topics’ not addressed in other texts which the accounting profession is tackling or are likely to tackle soon. Hence the book provides accounting students and researchers a solid grounding in a broad range of highly relevant non-technical accounting themes, looking at the bigger environment in which future accountants will be operating, involving considerations of strategic corporate governance issues and highlighting competences beyond the standard technical accounting skill sets.

Indeed, much of what is said here will have only limited relevance to an other view of the role of the corporation and of accounting for it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Accounting Theory and its Practice” is a comprehensive book that explores the dynamic interplay between accounting theory and its real-world application. Authored by renowned experts in the field, this book offers valuable insights into the theoretical foundations of accounting and how these theories are put into practice in diverse business contexts. The book delves into the conceptual underpinnings of accounting, providing readers with a solid understanding of the fundamental principles that govern financial reporting and analysis. It discusses various accounting theories, including normative theories (which prescribe how accounting should be done), positive theories (which seek to explain how accounting is actually practiced), and critical theories (which analyze the broader socio-political implications of accounting practices). This multi-dimensional approach helps readers appreciate the complexity and depth of the accounting discipline. One of the strengths of “Accounting Theory and its Practice” is its focus on the practical application of accounting theories. It highlights the role of accounting standards, such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), in shaping financial reporting practices across the globe. The book also offers real-world examples and case studies that illustrate how accounting theories are translated into financial statements and disclosures, demonstrating the relevance of theory in day-to-day accounting tasks. The book delves into contemporary accounting issues, including sustainability reporting, the impact of digital technologies on accounting practices, and the evolving role of accountants in an increasingly complex and globalized business environment. It provides a holistic view of accounting’s role in decision-making processes, showing how it informs financial decisions, corporate governance, and regulatory compliance.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Issues in Accounting Regulation looks at accounting regulation in a different way. The opening chapters explore the tension between the power of the state and the forces of the market, and other aspects of the political dimension to accounting regulation. The book also examines the process of setting accounting standards, highlighting the crucial role of standard setters in assessing the level of public support for an issue in the face of opposing positions taken by powerful interest groups. In addition, the book provides an introduction to the theoretical framework of accounting regulation, looking at choices between controversial accounting methods and at markets that are characterized by asymmetry of information and beliefs. The final chapters of the book are concerned with creative accounting, deregulation of financial reporting by smaller companies, and the link between price regulation and accounting policy choices.

Book excerpt: This report investigates the presentation and analysis of financial information in 41 UK Manufacturing companies. Traditional and contemporary accounting techniques are exemplified in the case studies. With old and new techniques explored, the research shows that there is little that is new in management accounting theory and practice. The study concludes that there is not one set of practices which all should follow. ·Cima research report - reveals methods currently used for reporting financial information in UK manufacturing companies. ·Based on 41 companies, it shows a rich diversity of reporting practices that are constrained neither by the financial accounting requirements of SSAP9 nor by any sense of general management accounting trends. ·Financial Directors choose from a toolkit of ‘traditional' and ‘contemporary' practices in constructing reporting systems appropriate to their varied commercial needs, but with a strong leaning towards contribution margin approaches.
