Managerial Accounting (8th ed., International student ed)

The emphasis of "Managerial Accounting, 8e" is on teaching students to use accounting information to best manage an organization.

In a practice Hilton pioneered in the first edition, each chapter is written around a realistic business or focus company that guides the reader through the topics of that chapter.

Known for balanced examples of service, retail, nonprofit and manufacturing companies, Hilton offers a clear, engaging writing style that has been praised by instructors and students alike.

As in previous editions, there is significant coverage of contemporary topics such as activity-based costing, target costing, the value chain, customer profitability analysis, and throughput costing while also including traditional topics such as job-order costing, budgeting and performance evaluation.
