Download or read book Accounting for Management written by Dr. M. Rajeswari and published by AG Publishing House. This book was released on with total page 880 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of accounting has been more popular in recent years, both on its own and as a supporting field for other professions and fields of study including engineering, law, and medicine. A growing number of people are realising that money matters when starting a business. Almost every endeavour will have monetary effects that need to be assessed and regulated, and this demands for the participation of someone who is well-versed in the right approaches. But it's important to keep in mind that accounting's neutrality means that the numbers generated by it need to be understood and their significance balanced against other factors before any judgments can be taken. The consumers of accounting information must have a firm grasp of the reasoning behind the data as well as an appreciation for its potential and inherent limits. While this book focuses on providing managers and students with actionable advice for resolving real-world management accounting issues, the authors have made every effort to write in a clear and comprehensible manner, using relevant research wherever possible. In addition to covering approaches for spotting qualitative problems, this book makes an effort to zero in on analytical and critical concerns that are relevant to decision-makers across industries and at all levels of government and business. This book offers an introduction to accounting aspects that covers the fundamentals, both in terms of methodology and theory, and provides examples of how these principles are put into practise. It is designed for individuals at both the undergraduate and graduate levels who aren't already accounting specialists but who want to become one.

Download or read book Index Numbers and Their Relationship With the Economy written by Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean and published by United Nations. This book was released on 2022-09-26 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Index numbers are the basic instrument for synthesizing economic statistics so that the formulas used make it possible to express and describe, for example, the economic growth of a country or the inflation rate of an economy, and also to make international comparisons. If different formulas are used, the results differ and the comparisons are not valid. Hence the importance of knowing the formulas used, and that countries and international organizations promote common practices that harmonize and standardize measurements. Although index numbers are linked to macroeconomics, their theoretical foundation is based on microeconomics. This publication summarizes the links between price and volume index numbers and microeconomic theory, introduces recommended formulas for international measurements, and explains how to use them in international price and volume comparisons.
Download or read book Statistical Implications of Inflation Targeting written by Mrs.Carol S. Carson and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2002-09-25 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the experience of central banks and national statistical agencies in countries that focus their monetary policy on inflation targets. Inflation targeting has led to a close interface between these two sets of institutions. When the performance of a central bank is measured in terms of specified price indices, which are usually compiled and disseminated by the national statistical agency, the role of national statistical agencies becomes central to the credibility of monetary policy. Data needs and uses have also shifted, with implications for national and international statistics compilation: market data have gained in importance; less emphasis is placed on traditional monetary aggregates; and greater attention is paid to timeliness, adherence to sound economic accounting standards, and other aspects of data quality.

Download or read book System of National Accounts 2008 written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-09-30 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This joint publication of the United Nations, the European Commission, the International Monetary Fund, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, and the World Bank reflects the changes and improvements that have been introduced to the System of National Accounts since its most recent revision in 1993. The System of National Accounts 2008 (2008 SNA) is a statistical framework that provides a comprehensive, consistent and flexible set of macroeconomic accounts for policymaking, analysis and research purposes. The 2008 SNA is expected to receive distinguished attention not only from professionals practicing in the field of national accounts but policy makers, analysts, academia and a broad range of users who rely on macroeconomic information obtainable from the updated system of accounts. It also provides an overarching framework for standards in other domains of economic statistics, facilitating the integration of these statistical systems to achieve consistency with national accounts. The publication that contains the 2008 SNA has been substantially updated from its previous version as a result of a multiyear collaborative project. Annex 3 of the publication provides a detailed description of the new features of the 2008 SNA. The 2008 SNA will support the implementation of international standards in national accounting and provide the methodological basis for improving the international comparability of national accounts data. When adopting the 2008 SNA as the updated new standard of national accounting, the United Nations Statistical Commission encouraged all countries to compile and report their national accounts on the basis of the 2008 SNA as soon as possible. The publication also provides practical new tools to complement the previously published version: a glossary of SNA terms and definitions and a comprehensive index.
