The authors provide a balance of small and large business examples, integration of new computerized learning tools, superior end-of-chapter materials, and highly engaging pedagogical learning structures. Technology tools such as Homework Manager and Carol Yacht’s General Ledger and Peachtree software provides students with further advantages as they learn and apply key accounting concepts and methods.
