A Managerial Emphasis

This ISBN is for the Pearson eText and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplement. Clear, Accessible and Accurate. Your resource for understanding Managerial and Cost Accounting concepts in accounting and business. Studying cost accounting is one of the best business investments a student can make. Success in any organization - from the smallest store to the largest multinational corporation- requires the use of cost accounting concepts and practices. Cost accounting provides key data to managers for decision making, planning and controlling, costing products and services, and even managing customer relationships. The advance of new technologies in analytics in the areas to collect, store, manipulate, analyze, and visualize data make the work all the more exciting and valuable. Horngren's Cost Accounting: A Managerial Emphasis focuses on how cost accounting helps managers make better decisions, as cost accountants are integral members of an organization's decision-making team. In order to emphasize this prominence in decision making, we focus on basic concepts, analyses, uses, and procedures instead of on procedures alone. It is important to recognize cost accounting as a managerial tool for business strategy and implementation. We also prepare students for the rewards and challenges they will face in professional cost accounting today and tomorrow.
