Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is not a slimmed-down "Accounting for Lawyers" casebook, but a book especially designed as an auxiliary book for other courses that draw on accounting. It is brief, inexpensive, and gives students a plain English, sometimes even humorous, introduction to the basics of accounting and to the financial concepts of present value and expected value. It allows students to learn the essential accounting concepts outside of class so professors can spend more of valuable class time focusing on the core concepts of a course. The chapters are short and modular, so professors can assign as much or as little as students need to know for a course"--

Download or read book Introductory Accounting Finance and Auditing for Lawyers written by Lawrence A. Cunningham and published by West Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introductory Accounting, Finance and Auditing for Lawyers, Fourth Edition, continues to be packed with incisive substance on accounting and finance, and also emphasizes the role of auditing in the financial reporting process, an element given substantial new weight under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Fourth Edition reflects the significant developments in the world of accounting, finance and auditing, including those generated by the major scandals such as Enron and the responses generated by Sarbanes-Oxley, from the Act itself, to the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to the SEC. The book retains the same basic architecture, narrative style, problems, and pitch to law students as in previous editions, and adds substantial new material. Additions include three entirely new Chapters, several new Sections added to existing Chapters, new Tables, and enhanced technical formatting. New Chapters include Audit Practice, an introduction to the key features of a financial audit including an Illustration and Problem concerning the leading statistical sampling techniques auditors apply in tests of internal control over financial reporting. Another new Chapter is Finance Theory, a rigorous but still introductory account of modern portfolio theory, CAPM and efficient market theory with critiques from behavioral finance inspired in part by the Enron-style accounting scandals. Previous users of the book will find all the familiar Illustrations and Problems, along with a solid dose of new materials geared toward the increasing reliance being placed on auditing, audit committees, and corporate governance in the era ushered in by Sarbanes-Oxley and PCAOB.
Download or read book Accounting Principles for Lawyers written by Peter Holgate and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-02-02 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many lawyers, especially those dealing with commercial matters, need to understand accounting yet feel on shaky ground in the area. This book is written specifically for them. It breaks down and makes clear basic concepts (such as the difference between profit and cash flow), the accounting profession and the legal and regulatory framework within which accounting operates. The relevant provisions of the Companies Act 1985 are discussed at some length. Holgate explains generally accepted accounting principles in the UK (GAAP), the trend towards global harmonisation and the role of international accounting standards. He then deals with specific areas such as group accounts, acquisitions, tax, leases, pensions, financial instruments, and realised profits, focusing in each case on those aspects that are likely to confront lawyers in their work. This book will appeal to the general practitioner as well as to lawyers working in corporate, commercial, and tax law.
Download or read book Materials on Accounting for Lawyers written by David R. Herwitz and published by . This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concise edition of Herwitz and Barrett's Accounting for Lawyers responds to the numerous requests from teachers of one and two credit Accounting for Lawyers courses. These teachers have been seeking a briefer, less detailed casebook which their students would find easier to master in the limited class time available. The concise edition is more than one-third shorter than the full edition. The concise edition, however, is not merely an abridgment of the full version, but rather a self-contained casebook specifically designed for the shorter Accounting for Lawyers courses. The concise edition stands entirely on its own, making no reference to the full edition, and providing complete, though more limited, coverage of the field. Despite the overall substantial reduction in the text, the concise edition contains some special added material designed to ease the introduction of the students to several of the core topics in the field. For example, the subject of extraordinary items is introduced with a look at how differently General Motors and Jersey Standard handled the reporting of their respective gains upon the sale many years ago of identical 50% holdings of Ethyl stock. On a different front, some students may find that the complex issue of inter-period tax allocation is illuminated by a description of intra-period allocation of tax expense, in connection with the presentation of extraordinary items on a ?net of tax? basis. The concise edition features a substantial reduction in both text and principal cases. To some extent, that is accomplished by eliminating topics that students are likely to encounter in other courses ? for example, issuance of stock or the treatment of stock dividends, which are thoughtfully presented in the full third edition, but can be left to the courses in Corporations or Corporate Finance. But it should be noted that there is virtually no reduction in the problems in the concise edition, which incorporates all the old favorites from the second edition of the casebook, plus the new problems added in the full third edition, and even restores a few problems from earlier editions. Another substantially reduced section is the extensive review in the full edition of the many sources of accounting principles and the hierarchy of the various authoritative promulgations. In addition, as mentioned, the concise edition cuts back on the number of principal cases, in order to reduce the reading burden for the students in shorter accounting courses, although the most relevant and instructive judicial opinions have been retained, and most of the omitted authorities are at least summarized in the text. With more than fifty adoptions since the publication of the second edition in 1997, Herwitz and Barrett?s Accounting for Lawyers has continued the tradition and leadership in the field which its earliest predecessor, the first casebook on accounting for law students, pioneered more than fifty years ago The full edition of Accounting for Lawyers strives to make the materials as understandable as possible, taking as its audience the law student with no accounting background (e.g., English or Philosophy majors). The concise edition accentuates this emphasis, in an effort to ease the task of students who have less time to devote to the subject. Of course, the concise edition follows the ?learn by doing? approach of Professors Herwitz and Barrett, using financial statements to illustrate various concepts, and providing comprehensive problems for class discussion in every chapter The concise edition also utilizes Herwitz and Barrett?s combination of the most comprehensive Teacher?s Manual in the field, PowerPoint slides, and a national author forum on lawschool.westlaw.com.
