FundamentalManagerial Accounting Concepts focuses on the development ofdecision-making skills helping students to truly understand managerialaccounting concepts and improving their ability to make sound businessdecisions. The text places a heavy emphasis on service and merchandisingcompanies. For example, the budgeting chapter uses a merchandising business, while most traditional texts use a manufacturing company. Using a servicecompany is not only more relevant, but also simplifies the learningenvironment, thereby making it easier for students to focus on budgetingconcepts rather than procedural details.
