 In recent years, several important developments have occurred in the fields of cost accounting and mangement accounting, especially in relation to the examinations set by the major professional bodies. The substantial revision contained in this edition is an attempt to reflect those developments so that the needs of students are more precisely accommodated. The major change lies in the scope of subject matter covered. It has become apparent that it is impractical to attempt to cover, in a single volume, the wide range of topics now included in cost accounting and management accounting examinations; the tenth edition is designed to prepare students for cost accounting at Foundation level or at early Professional stage. To meet the objective, coverage of certain subjects has been expanded while others have been condensed or omitted as being more relevant to a management accounting text. Self-study tests, together with outline solutions, further reflect the intention to improve the book's usefulness as an aid to study.
