Recent headlines and current events continue to prove how crucial the field of accounting is to modern business. Organizing topics to match the way a business works, Financial Accounting: A Business Process Approach, 2/e is an excellent text for the first accounting course with its unique approach that focuses on the relationship between real-world business and the fundamentals of accounting.

How do you motivate your students to learn accounting?

Business Process Approach: While other texts rely on the balance sheet order–which doesn’t make sense to students just learning about the balance sheet–Financial Accounting organizes topics to reflect the way a business actually operates. It presents a business topic and then illustrates how we account for it. The text begins by introducing basic accounting concepts in the context of a small start-up company (Chapters 1-3) before advancing to such traditional accounting topics as long-term assets, inventory, cash and accounts receivable, debt, and equity–which are all introduced in an order that matches how real business works. This practical approach makes sense to readers and, therefore, provides an underlying motivation for students to learn about accounting.

Typically, what percentage of your students are accounting majors? How do you appeal to other business majors–and even non-business majors–in your classroom?

More business, less bookkeeping: All students, regardless of major, need to understand the basic relationship between business transactions and financial statements. Focusing more on what a business does–and less on the intricacies of bookkeeping–Financial Accounting, 2/e equips accounting majors and nonmajors alike with a solid understanding of financial statements. This approach provides a strong foundation for accounting majors while keeping the content relevant for all majors.

OTHER POINTS OF DISTINCTION

How do you ensure students fully understand financial statements?

To effectively use financial statements, students must first thoroughly understand how the statements are prepared. Nothing teaches this as well as actually preparing the statements, and Financial Accounting is packed with hands-on applications.

• New Color-Coded Accounting Equation: Integrated throughout the text, this innovative tool enables students to see exactly how business transactions are summarized and presented on the each of the four basic financial statements.

• New Problems: A new summary problem is included in each chapter.

• More Exercises: Each chapter now includes an additional set of exercises.

• New Section: End-of-chapter material includes a new section on Financial Statement Analysis, giving students additional hands-on practice.

How much do you emphasize debits and credits?

While the heart of Financial Accounting’s approach is the fundamental accounting equation and the path from business transactions to financial statements, this thorough text also includes the mechanics of debits and credits in an appendix for professors who want to use this tool.

How do you balance theory and actual practice?

Reimers’ unique business process approach teaches students about the way a business works and then illustrates how accounting fits into business processes. Tom’s Wear, a running case introduced early in the text, focuses on an entrepreneur, illustrating financial accounting concepts as he launches and grows his business. The new edition is packed with even more real-world examples throughout and also includes two sets of annual reports from actual companies—enabling readers to see how accounting information is presented in real business and preparing them for what they will encounter in their own careers.

How do you incorporate ethics coverage?

Widespread scandals rocking corporate America in recent years underscore the critical need for ethics emphasis in all areas of business. The new edition integrates ethics coverage throughout. Each chapter opens with a “Focus on Ethics” feature highlighting a current example of how important ethics is to accounting and business. Chapters also include a new section on Business Risk, Control, and Ethics.

  For Principles of Accounting courses
  
  The Demo Docs System of instruction replicates the classroom experience by providing more “I get it” moments outside of class.
  
  We’ve talked to tons of POA instructors and our editors have even taken the accounting course (numerous times!) to figure out the following issue in this course that is consistent:  Students understand (or “get it”) right after you do a problem in class, but as soon as they leave class, with each passing hour, their ability to do the problems again and complete their homework diminishes to the point of them either having to come to office hours to get help, or they just quit and get behind in the course.  On top of this, you can end up getting behind in the course as well, in order to keep everyone on track.  The Demo Docs system helps to recreate the “I get it” moments outside of class—keeping both you and the students on track.

  Financial Accounting, 8e helps students “nail” the accounting cycle!
  
  Financial Accounting helps students “nail” the accounting cycle up front in order to increase success and retention later on. The concepts and mechanics students learn in the critical ‘accounting cycle’ chapters are used consistently and repetitively–and with clear-cut details and explanations–throughout the remainder of the text, minimizing confusion.  MyAccountingLab, the text’s online homework system, then provides students with a personalized learning environment that tests and strengthens their skills and understanding through unlimited practice. Together, Financial Accounting 8e and MyAccountingLab will help students have more of those “I Get It!” moments.
  
  A solid enhancement to already solid fundamentals, the eighth edition now features new co-author Bill Thomas of Baylor University who brings his expertise on auditing, ethics, and internal controls to key sections of the book.

  For Principles of Accounting courses that use a 50/50 split
  
  The Demo Docs System of instruction replicates the classroom experience by providing more “I get it” moments outside of class.
  
  We’ve talked to tons of POA instructors and our editors have even taken the accounting course (numerous times!) to figure out the following issue in this course that is consistent:  Students understand (or “get it”) right after you do a problem in class, but as soon as they leave class, with each passing hour, their ability to do the problems again and complete their homework diminishes to the point of them either having to come to office hours to get help, or they just quit and get behind in the course.  On top of this, you can end up getting behind in the course as well, in order to keep everyone on track.  The Demo Docs system helps to recreate the “I get it” moments outside of class–keeping both you and the students on track.

  Rock-solid decision-making through strong coverage and effective practice
  
  

  Students interact with businesses every day—where they work, where they shop, even where they blog. At the core of these businesses are rock-solid managerial accounting fundamentals that students don’t always see. Authors Wendy Tietz, Karen Braun, and Walter Harrison show the connection between accounting concepts and the businesses students interact with in their new text, Managerial Accounting. By presenting the accounting decisions made in companies like Target and J. Crew, this text’s precise coverage of the core concepts—combined with the unlimited practice in MyAccountingLab, the text’s market-leading online homework and tutorial program—gets students engaged in the learning process. With Managerial Accounting and MyAccountingLab, students will have more “I Get It!” moments and leave the course with a rock-solid understanding of managerial accounting.
  
  

  For this edition, Wendy Tietz, of Kent State University, contributed as coauthor. Dr. Tietz is an award-winning and experienced accounting and technology educator. Together, the authors refined their philosophy for the end-of-chapter and supplementary material for the second edition.
