This book was released on 2009-01-30 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accounting is the discipline with the oldest historical culture, being the first to be recognized by humanity when Adam and Eve were made to account for what they did in paradise. It is also the only discipline that will come into play in the Hereafter, where everybody would be raised up as an accountant - to account for all they have done during their life time on earth! Accounting is a service-providing discipline, with a rich theoretical background, which makes available information (especially financial) to guide various decision-making processes. Business owners, creditors, managers, prospective investors, government and its agencies, employees and even the general public seek accounting information to guide them when taking various informed decisions about reporting entities and the environment within which they operate. This book addresses the historical accounting culture, its theories as well as its practices. It is made up of fifteen chapters, covering various historical, theoretical and practical aspects of Accounting, ranging from accounting standardization to financial reporting. The book is an attempt to address some of the lacunae in advanced accounting issues, both in theory and in practice. Students of advanced accounting theory and practice at the professional and academic levels in Universities, Polytechnics and Professional Institutes would find the book an essential companion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial accounting theory has numerous practical applications and policy implications, for instance, international accounting standard setters are increasingly relying on theoretical accounting concepts in the creation of new standards; and corporate regulators are increasingly turning to various conceptual frameworks of accounting to guide regulation and the interpretation of accounting practices. The global financial crisis has also led to a new found appreciation of the social, economic and political importance of accounting concepts generally and corporate financial reporting in particular. For instance, the fundamentals of capital market theory (i.e. market efficiency) and measurement theory (i.e. fair value) have received widespread public and regulatory attention. This comprehensive, authoritative volume provides a prestige reference work which offers students, academics, regulators and practitioners a valuable resource containing the current scholarship and practice in the established field of financial accounting theory.

Book excerpt: Introduction to the Theory and Context of Accounting is an introductory text on the theory and context of accounting and covers topics ranging from long-term asset valuation and depreciation to the measurement of income, the utility of accounting statements, and the use of accounting in economics and politics. This book is comprised of 12 chapters and begins with a historical overview of accounting, from the introduction of double-entry or Italian method to the publication of the first book on accountancy by the Franciscan monk, Luca Pacioli. The development of accounting during the Industrial Revolution is also considered, along with the emergence of the accounting profession and the earliest professional organizations. The next chapter presents a conceptual framework of accounting, with emphasis on the limits of accountability, measurement assumptions, the construction of financial reports, and the development of accounting theory. Subsequent chapters deal with the use of accounting in economics and politics as well as the utility of accounting statements. This monograph will be a useful resource for teachers and undergraduate students of financial and management accounting.

Download or read book Accounting Theory and Practice written by Roy B. Kester and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Accounting Theory and Practice, Vol. 3 The present volume completes the series of texts covering the general field of accounting which the author planned at the time of the appearance of his first volume. The special subjects of cost accounting and auditing, although essential links in the training for professional accounting, have not been given a place in this series, which is limited to the general field. Volumes I and II present the fundamental principles on which the science rests and give a thorough treatment of its larger problems, particularly those closely related to the fields of finance, business organization and management, and law. As the author views the problem of accountancy education, there remains for sound training in this general field, a need for the student to see how the principles which he has been studying as related to ideal abstract situations, are applied to actual conditions. Business organizations may be divided into several large groups or types, the chief of which are: (1) financial institutions, (2) manufacturing businesses, (3) trading businesses, (4) those dealing in or concerned with services, professional and other, and (5) the organizations for carrying on the business functions of governmental bodies, state, county, municipal, etc. For the proper rounding out of his training in accounting, the student needs an understanding of the application of general accounting principles, not only to these main groups or types of business, but at least to a few of the individual units comprising each type. Throughout the volumes of the series the view has been emphasized that merely theoretic principles held in abstraction and not submitted to the testing of use in practice have little or no place in the scheme of education for a calling as intensely practical as accounting.
