Introductory Accounting: A Measurement Approach for Managers – eBook

Introductory Accounting adopts a measurement approach to teaching graduate students accounting basics. Integrating financial and managerial principles from the U.S. and around the globe links accounting to other business areas (such as operations, finance, and management).

By providing students with the context to understand how and why accounting is a valuable part of business, readers will understand accounting’s role in financial analysis and managerial decision-making. In Tinkelman’s Introductory Accounting: A Measurement Approach for Managers (PDF), the author discusses accounting as an imperfect measurement system, offering guidance on how quantitative data can benefit analysts and managers when used with an understanding of its limitations. The textbook is firmly grounded in research and draws on plenty of examples and cases to bring these issues to life.

Reviews

“In this innovative accounting textbook, Tinkelman combines financial accounting with managerial, introduces relevant research, and organizes topics better than other books. Introductory Accounting should be seriously considered for adoption by any accounting instructor.” ― Baruch Lev, Leonard N. Stern School of Business, NYU, USA.

“Introductory Accounting is a breath of fresh air in the accounting library. It dares to depart from the well-trodden path of introductory accounting texts by presenting accounting as a solution to societal problems beyond a set of rules. Tinkelman’s problem-solving approach to accounting measurement, carefully embedded in research, will appeal to instructors and students alike.” ― Shyam Sunder, Yale School of Management, USA.

“Tinkelman’s Introductory Accounting is thoughtful and lucidly written, an admirable synthesis of the accounting profession’s longstanding concerns with accounting measurement and modern social science. It provides an intellectually broadminded yet practical financial and managerial accounting foundation for managers.” ― Stephen G. Ryan, Leonard N. Stern School of Business, New York University, USA
