Author: Curtis Norton, Michael Diamond, Donald Pagach

Intermediate Accounting provides students with a core body of knowledge and a solid foundation in the necessary procedures, yet offers a streamlined approach more conceptual in nature than other texts. Authors Norton, Diamond, and Pagach recognize that the role of the accountant has expanded well beyond basic recording and reporting funct... more »ions. Accounting professionals must lead businesses and interpret the implications of business transactions and industry events. This text responds to the demands students will face as future accountants, enabling them to think critically and to understand the "why" of accounting as well as the "how."A combination of print and electronic resources ensure that students can practice the skills they need to succeed in the course. Real financial statements provide a basis for comparison and analysis, while "Point/Counterpoint" features present contrasting perspectives on controversial accounting topics. Through CPA Exam Simulations and other web-based activities, students conduct research, prepare reports, communicate financial information, and apply critical-thinking and decision-making skills.
