Summary: "Introduction to Accounting : an integrated approach revolves arround three major themes. The overriding theme of the text is that accounting is an information system which serves two diverse sets of users. Traditionally, accounting has been taught as two separate and distinct segments, financial accounting and managerial accounting. Consequently, many of the students never gain an understanding of accounting as a process of providing information about business to both internal (managerial) and external (financial) users. An understanding of how and why accounting information is used by internal and external stakeholders is vital, regardless of a student's major." - To the instructor.
