This revision of Principles of Accounting is the most significant in the book’s long
history. The substantial changes we have made meet the needs of today’s students,
who not only face a business world increasingly complicated by ethical
issues, globalization, and technology, but who also have more demands on
their time. To help them meet these challenges, we place a heavy emphasis on
developing their decision-making and critical-thinking skills and on providing
information that is easy to understand and process.
We invite you to read the User’s Guide that follows this preface to get a
sense of how this book was written to help students master accounting. Here,
we elaborate on exactly what we set out to achieve in this tenth edition.
