Accounting Principles: A Business Perspective by Roger H. Hermanson, James Don Edwards, Michael W. Maher (CC BY).

Accounting Principles: A Business Perspective uses annual reports of real companies to illustrate many of the accounting concepts in use in business today. Gaining an understanding of accounting terminology and concepts, however, is not enough to ensure your success.

This text was developed to help you develop these skills.
