This book is a collection of financial accounting cases designed to help you become a user of financial reports. Learning accounting is very much like learning a new language. The best way to learn any language is to immerse oneself in the language and to converse with many people. Conversations speed up language acquisition and teach the nuances of the language.

Conversations strengthen language skills and build breadth. This collection of cases creates a set of conversational opportunities. You will learn accounting by reading financial statements and disclosures and by responding to topical questions about those financial reports. By reading and using many different companies’ financial statements, you will speed-up your acquisition of accounting concepts and skills. By observing the nuances of financial reporting, you will quickly learn to speak 'accounting,' the language of business. These materials bridge a void in introductory financial statement materials at both the undergraduate and the graduate level. Typically, students are required to read a textbook chapter and do some exercises to ensure concept comprehension.

Assigned end of chapter material, however, is often not sufficiently challenging to students with stronger analytical abilities or doesn’t fully capture the look and feel of actual financial statements and their footnote disclosures. Questions often focus on financial statement preparation rather than, as appropriate for many students, financial statement use. At the other extreme, unstructured discussion cases can leave students with a weak grasp of the mechanics and subtleties of financial accounting. These cases are designed to fill the void and help you become a sophisticated user of financial information. Each case deals with a specific financial accounting topic within the context of one (or more) corporation’s financial statements.

Each case contains financial statement information (a balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, and footnotes) and a set of directed questions pertaining to one or two specific financial accounting and reporting issues. You will use the financial statement information to infer and interpret the economic events underlying the numbers. Some cases are accompanied by a corporate press release or a related business press article. In those instances, information from the press release or article is incorporated into the questions in the case. Some cases involve two companies within an industry and the case questions focus on intercompany comparisons of financial information. Some cases include industry-level information that you will use to assess the performance or position of the case company. Numerous cases are based on international companies or ask you to compare U.S.

And international accounting standards. New in the 8th Edition In keeping with the contemporary flavor of the earlier editions, we have added many new companies to the book (including Starbucks, Deere & Company, Cisco, Wendy's, ZAGG, Golden Enterprises, Home Depot and Lowe's Companies). Roughly half of the cases in this addition are completely new or updated for the latest financial statements from fiscal 2012 and 2013. We reviewed all of the continuing cases with an eye to improving their clarity. To that end, we reorganized the questions in several cases. We continue to include and emphasize financial ratios and questions about management’s incentives and motives in arriving at accounting choices in many cases.

We have included a case (BP p.l.c.) with quarterly financials and disclosures to allow students to see and explore interim financial reports and observe how firms report current issues (like the impact of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill) in a timely manner. We ask students to interpret non-GAAP earnings measures disclosed in Google Inc. Fourth quarter earnings press release and consider how the stock market reacts to information in the press release. We include the statements of comprehensive income in all new cases. While we included specific questions that probe the purpose of the comprehensive income disclosures in the Molson Coors Brewing Corporation case, these questions asking students to interpret comprehensive income can be used in any of the case that showcase the statement of comprehensive income.
