Management Accounting by E.Gordon
About the Book: Management accounting in recent years has become one of the important thrust areas of commerce and management inviting the attention of academicians to include it in the curricula of commerce and management studies of almost all universities and professional bodies. Indeed management accounting renders novel services enabling the modern management to arrive at concrete and sound decisions in the midst of complexities by serving not only as 'information retrieving system' but also as information dissemination system. However, for formulating appropriate financial strategies to operate with increased financial strength and with good corporate governance, one should have an exposure to the different ramifications of the management accounting system. Keeping in view the above facts, a humble attempt has been made to sketch the various important aspects of management accounting and we know fully well that it is a very stupendous task to describe such a sprawling subject under one cover. Yet, all efforts have been taken to present the text covering the vital aspects of management accounting in a lucid and simple style but in a precise way. All concepts have been explained with minute details and with comprehensive illustrations so that the learners could understand the intricacies of management accounting from the grass root level to the most advanced and complex level in a logical sequence. To facilitate recapitulation and to have a better grasp of the subject, a large number of objective type questions and test problems have been given at the end of each chapter. This book owes its consummation to various distinguished personalities who have expressed their views on this subject in different books, journals and magazines.
