Using terminology which is compliant with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), Financial Accounting and Reporting for Non-Accounting Students covers topics such as the statement of financial position, profit and loss statement, non-current assets, inventory valuation and the statement of cashflows.

Real-world examples from Britvic, Greggs. Huawei, Hugo Boss, Manchester United and Ryanair illustrate the principles discussed in the book. With over 300 multiple-choice questions, 71 extended problems and more than 90 questions to enable deep learning in the fundamental aspects of this core business subject, Financial Accounting and Reporting for Non-Accountings Students is a key textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students taking modules on financial accounting and reporting or introductory modules in accounting.
