This is a comprehensive introductory textbook on management accounting for non-accountants on business degrees. The emphasis is firmly on management accounting as an analytical and interpretive tool for working managers: math is kept to a minimum, and there is a wealth of features designed to maximize the book' s usefulness and student-friendliness.

Each chapter also includes a comprehensive case study with associated assessment tasks, numerous examples, together with related self-assessment questions, and a section discussing the limitations of financial models in fully reflecting business reality. The content of the book and the exercises have an emphasis on the service sector, which reflects the fact that most students are likely to work in that sector.
