Publisher's Synopsis
Suitable especially for courses on which students are encouraged to be active participants in the learning process, this text offers a practical and activity-based approach to understanding finance for people who do not need to know the technicalities of finance and accounting. This revised edition has more material on service industries, the not-for-profit sector, and education and health services. There is also coverage of the Cadbury and Greenbury codes, and more exercises and assignments. The case-study approach enables students to understand the solutions as they apply to a real business, rather than just a text-book answer, and the book can be used for a multitude of purposes, depending upon teaching time, structure and, preparation time.
