Accounting Theory An Information Content Perspective

The text will cover both financial and managerial accounting theory with a strong emphasis on accounting information systems. It will be different from the other theory books available in that it will not focus solely on the FASB, its misison statement, and the rationale for specific FASB standards. Demski's book will look at the challenges faced by accounting information users/preparers and the role accounting information systems play. A second competitive advantage is the authorship of the book. No other theory book is written by academics of the same caliber as Joel and John. This is significant given that accounting theory is taught all around the world.Christensen, John Asmus is the author of 'Accounting Theory An Information Content Perspective' with ISBN 9780071123273 and ISBN 007112327X.
