Description and Table of Contents

Description

Written primarily for the student of accounting who needs a thorough introduction to computing and data-processing applications, this book which replaces "Accounting Information Systems and Data Processing", attempts to bring together an overview of the current state-of-the-art in business computing and the development of management information systems, from the perspective of accountancy. In examining computer applications, it incorporates the latest uses to which computers are being put within the business environment, examines the present status of western technology and contrasts this with the the Japanese approach to a typical management accounting problem.
