Really useful book, explains topics well.

This book has been written primarily for accountancy students in their second year of study. It focuses on the practical aspects of intermediate financial accounting (through the application of New Zealand International Accounting Standards), complemented by a discussion of the underlying theory.

This text is particularly suitable for students of the NZDB second level paper NZDB 601.

Each chapter provides: learning objectives, clear worked examples to illustrate methods, real-life examples drawn from New Zealand company information, chapter summaries and a comprehensive set of questions and exercises to test the reader's grasp of the contents.

In addition to the regular topics covered in a course of accounting at this level there is comprehensive coverage of a wide range of financial accounting issues on topics such as: environmental and social responsibility accounting, accounting for e-commerce, accounting for trusts, accounting for the primary sector and accounting for liquidations and receiverships.
