Traditional accounting textbooks are often text-heavy and relegate actual accounting problems to back-of-the-chapter status. In contrast, Mastering Managerial Accounting helps students learn by doing. It emphasizes working through problems over reading about theory and identifies clear procedures for completing each problem successfully.Well-organized chapters include recommended readings from numerous sources and a concise explanation of relevant theory. The heart of each chapter features an appropriate method for solving problems, an illustrative example, and an introductory stop-check problem for immediate application.Topics include the operating budget, variance analysis, capital budgeting under uncertainty, cost and service department allocation, job and normal costing, pricing, and production under constraints.
