Many new In Business boxes. Drawn from recent events, these boxes provide interesting examples of how managerial accounting concepts are used by real businesses.

New end-of-chapter exercises . As with every new edition of Garrison, the authors have refreshed and updated all end-of-chapter problems and exercises. Now, for the eleventh edition, we have included many shorter, simpler exercises, focusing on individual learning objectives to give instructors greater flexibility in choosing their homework assignments.

Other improvements in the eleventh edition include:

• The discussions of JIT, TQM, and Process Reengineering in Chapter 1 have been condensed.
• New problems covering the Balanced Scorecard have been added to Chapter 10.
• Chapter 12 has been extensively rewritten to improve the flow and simplify the presentation for students.
• An entirely new Profitability Analysis appendix has been added that provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and analyzing profitability.
• A new Instructor's Resource Guide, prepared by new coauthor Peter Brewer, features transparency masters, teaching notes, and numerous other enhancements that cut down your prep time and make your class a more lively and challenging place to learn for your students.
• McGraw-Hill's Homework Manager is a Web-based supplement that duplicates problem structures directly from the end-of-chapter material in the textbook, using algorithms to provide a limitless supply of online self-graded practice and assignment problems.
• Topic Tackler Plus is a complete multimedia tutorial focusing on those areas in the managerial accounting course that give students the most trouble.
