He highlights the key points of each standard whilst using actual company account extracts to show their practical applications.Students' Guide to Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, 8th edition is ideal for students of accounting and business studies at undergraduate level or those who are taking professional or technician level accounting courses. It will also be of use to postgraduate students and professional accountants. It is the market leading accounting standards text for students. Previous editions have gained the text a reputation for its up-to-date, comprehensive and accessible coverage of accounting standards. This new edition has been thoroughly revised to include all new standards up to and including FRS 19. Many actual company examples are used and the background to the standard setting process is explained.
