Understanding UK Annual Reports and Accounts: A Case Study ApproachThis new book provides a user-friendly introduction to annual reports and accounts, explaining in clear and simple language the basic terminology of accounts, their role and their importance in the business world. Its key strengths are that it encourages the understanding of accounts within a broad management/business context, without going into double entry bookkeeping which is often inappropriate and tedious for users not wishing to become professional accountants. A further key strength of the book is that it uses examples from real life companies, in particular the brewery company Scottish & Newcastle, to illustrate and build users' understanding of the principles covered. |
