Accounting for Managers: Interpreting accounting information for decision-making


This book was motivated by the author’s experience in teaching accounting at post graduate level (MBA and MSc) at Aston Business School and in-house training provided for non-financial managers in many organizations to introduce them to the use of financial tools and techniques. My own education as an accountant was aimed at achieving professional recognition and emphasized an uncritical acceptance of the tools and techniques that I was taught. It was only after moving from financial to a general management position in industry that I began to see the limitations and questionable assumptions that underlay these tools and techniques. When I returned to study later in my career, I was exposed for the first time to alternative paradigms from which to view accounting.This book is therefore as much a result of my practical experience as a producer and user of accounting information as it is a result of my teaching and training experience.
