Description
For over thirty years, Colin Drury has been at the forefront of helping students learn the key concepts and processes in management and cost accounting through his textbooks.
Now in its ninth edition, Cost and Management Accounting continues to provide an accessible and thorough introduction to the subject. It blends theory and practice in language that is clear and easy to understand and provides students with a thorough introduction to cost and management accounting whether they are studying an accountancy or business undergraduate course, or a post-experience course.
The new edition has been completely updated to reflect recent developments in the field, and now includes additional emphasis on value creation, and links strategic performance management more closely to divisional financial performance measurement.
