    About this ebook

    Now in its fourth edition, this book dispels much of the mystique surrounding accounting and finance for the non-financial manager. It will enable the reader to communicate more efficiently with financial advisers and help to enhance the quality of the financial decisions that managers have to make. It includes such topics as accounting for inflation, the significance of cash management and control and the development of accounting standards, many of which have not been treated in any single, recent, competitive work. This fully revised and updated version incorporates changes in current legislation and in attitudes towards financial analysis, the interpretation of annual accounts and the use of financial ratios, as well as a new chapter on capital investment appraisal.
