ESSENTIALS FINANCE ACCOUNTING 4 NONFINAN(ISBN=9780814416242)

　　As a department manager, the last thing you want to think about is numbers. But the truth is, that’s the only thing your executives and senior managers are thinking about so it’s crucial to understand key financial information like balance sheets, income statements, cash flow statements, budgets and forecasts, and annual reports.
　　With over 40,000 copies sold, The Essentials of Finance and Accounting for Nonfinancial Managers has long provided readers with insight into the financial fundamentals. It demystifies the role accounting and finance play in a corporation, demonstrates how financial decisions reflect business goals, and shows how managers can connect corporate financial information directly to their own strategies and actions. Now revised to reflect new accounting and financial standards, the second edition includes:
　　Strategies for getting your share of the budget
　　New case studies and practice sessions
　　An explanation of Sarbanes-Oxley and its relevance to nonfinancial managers
　　How to manage cash flow in tough times
　　Fraud detection tools
　　An expanded glossary including up-to-the-minute business concepts and terminology
