Authors’ note to tutors v v v




Using the book v v




The book is designed to provide readers with a sound introduction to management accounting. It
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


assumes no previous knowledge of the subject and recognises that students using it may come
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


from a wide variety of backgrounds. The book, therefore, tries to avoid technical jargon and does
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


not assume a high level of numerical ability from students. It has been class tested by students on
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


various courses and we have modified and refined the material to take account of their comments.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


We have also taken account of the comments made by lecturers who used the first nine editions of
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


the book and of specially commissioned reviews.
v v v v v v v




The book aims to encourage an active approach to learning by providing activities and self-assessment
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


questions at appropriate points. This approach is designed to stimulate thought concerning
v v v v v v v v v v v v


particular issues and to give the readers the opportunity to test their understanding of the principles
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


covered.
v




The book is supplemented by a password-controlled lecturers’ website and a student website
v v v v v v v v v v v v


available to all readers.

The structure of the book allows the tutor to deliver the subject in a number of ways. It can be used
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


as recommended reading for a traditional course based on lectures and tutorials. There are critical
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


review questions and exercises at the end of each chapter that can be used as the basis for tutorials.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


vIt could also provide the basis for a distance learning approach for part-time or off-campus
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


students. For these students, the interactive nature of the book may be extremely useful where
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


access to a tutor is restricted. The book can also be used as the basis for an open learning approach
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


for full-time campus-based students. We have successfully used it in this way at the University of
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


Plymouth Business School. Accounting ‘surgeries’ have also been provided to give students the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


opportunity for one-to-one help with any problems they face.
v v v v v v v v v




The book is appropriate for modules that are designed to be covered in 100 to 150 hours of study.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


For full-time students, this will often be covered in one academic year.
v v v v v v v v v v v v




PowerPoint slides v




The diagrams in the book, along with other diagrams and materials, are available as PowerPoint
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


slides to help in delivering lectures and tutorials and these can be downloaded from the lecturers’
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


website.
v




Practice/assessment material v




The activities, whose solutions immediately follow them, and self-assessment questions, whose
v v v v v v v v v v


solutions are at the end of the book, form an integral part of it. In addition, there are various
