Managerial Accounting

 

Kurt Heisinger & Joe Ben Hoyle


In writing Managerial Accounting, Kurt Heisinger and Joe Hoyle’s goals were simple:

    • Deliver a modern look at managerial accounting while working within the confines of students’ busy lives
    • Help students learn the basics of accounting in the most efficient way possible
    • Allow instructors to teach the course they want to teach and assign what they want to assign.

    This textbook is suitable for these courses: Managerial Accounting

    This textbook is suitable for 2 and 4 year institutions.


    PEDAGOGICAL FEATURES:

    Managerial Accounting was written around three major themes: Ready, Reinforcement and Relevance. This book is aimed squarely at new learning styles evident with today’s students and addresses accounting industry changes as well.

      • READY:
      • This book adopts a concise, jargon-free, and easy-to-understand approach that is ready with concise sections and concepts when the student is ready to study in a format the student wants. Key concepts are provided in short segments with bullet points and step-by-step instructions to simplify concepts. This approach will help your students avoid distractions and focus attention on the big picture.

      • REINFORCEMENT:
      • Managerial Accounting boasts “Review Problems” at the end of each major section or learning objective which offer practical opportunities for students to apply what they have learned. These “Review Problems” allow students to immediately reinforce what they have learned and are provided within the body of the chapter along with the solutions.

      • RELEVANCE:
      • Since all students perform better when they can answer the “why” question, meaningful references to companies throughout the chapters help students tie chapter concepts to real organizations. In addition, realistic managerial scenarios present an issue that must be addressed by the management accountant. These will pique your students’ interest and were designed to show how issues can be resolved using the concepts presented in the chapter.

      • BUSINESS IN ACTION FEATURES:
      • These features link managerial decision-making to real business decisions to help your students complete the learning cycle from concept, to accounting decision, to real-world application.

      • CUSTOMIZABILITY:
      • The Flat World Knowledge publishing model allows instructors to adapt the textbook to the exact needs of their specific class and student body.
