Fundamentals of Cost Accounting 5th Edition Textbook

Our primary goal in the fifth edition remains the same as in the previous four editions – to offer a cost accounting text that lets the student see the development of cost accounting tools and techniques as a natural response to decision making. Each chapter clearly establishes learning objectives, highlights numerous real-world examples, and identifies where ethical issues arise and how to think about these issues.

We present the material from the perspective of both the preparer of information as well as those who will use the information. (Fundamentals of Cost Accounting 5th Edition; Michael W Maher, Shannon Anderson, William N. Lanen; McGraw-Hill Education [2016]; Preface: Page viii)
