Teach your students to make better decisions and improve performance.

Managerial Accounting, 4th edition, offers years of professional experience, focussing on practical application. Its non-technical vocabulary, ‘Manager's Point of View' aid boxes and range of cases make this text an ideal companion to your course.

Managerial Accounting teaches business students how to use accounting to make better decisions and improve performance. Engaging case studies and the popular ‘Manager’s Point of View’ boxes illustrate how concepts are applied in real world business situations. The latter add an extra dimension to your learning, as they are written by experienced practitioners of both management and accounting. With a minimum of technical language and a dedication to practical application, this popular text gives a refreshingly clear guide to management accounting.

Ray Proctor has taught Management Accounting for over 30 years. During his career he has lectured at Coventry University, Oxford Brookes University and Warwick University.
