Overview

Most current coverage – As Canadian GAAP moves to International Standards by January 1, 2011, there will be an increasing number of changes to the standards over the next few years. The authors have updated the text material wherever a formal change has been made and also alerted instructors and students (through International Perspective boxes in each chapter) to future changes by including information about International Standards when they are different from current Canadian GAAP. The authors are also committed to keeping instructors and students up to date even after the text publishes. Watch the Online Learning Centre for Updates regarding recent changes.

Financial Accounting's distinctive focus company approach motivates students by involving them in the business decisions of a real company, demonstrating how using financial accounting information in decision making makes a difference in the success of a firm. This balanced approach ensures students understand both the preparation and use of financial statements. Libby's pedagogical features and wealth of end of chapter material have been praised by students and instructors alike - making it a market leader in financial accounting.
