lecturers This textbook has been written so that a very thorough introduction to accounting is covered in two volumes The split into two volumes is made in recognition of the fact that many students new to accounting will find all that they require in Frank Wood’s Business Accounting This second volume completes the coverage of the financial accounting and management accounting parts of many examinations in accounting and should be suitable for anyone ­studying intermediate and final level financial accounting or anyone studying management accounting at introductory and intermediate levels on courses at school, college, or university; or studying for qualifications from the LCCI, Association of Accounting Technicians, the Institute of Secretaries and Administrators; or for qualifications of any of the six UK and Irish Chartered Accountancy bodies As examination syllabuses are constantly being revised, it would not make sense to be too specific as to which chapters would be needed by students taking each of the various examinations However, Financial Accounting and Financial Reporting are covered in Chapters 1–39 and Management Accounting is covered in Chapters 40–51 While management accounting has evolved to a point where changes in practice are limited, and the double entry method of bookkeeping and the fundamentals of financial accounting have long been established, the same is not true of financial reporting Far from being the neverchanging subject many perceive it to be, it is in a constant state of change The current major ongoing change, begun in 2005 and still ongoing, is the switch from domestic accounting rules to international rules Specifically, the rules that had been developed in the UK since 1970, known as Statements of Standard Accounting Practice (SSAPs) and Financial Reporting Standards (FRSs), are being phased out In their place most businesses are now using International GAAP, i.e International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and International Accounting Standards (IASs) Some small and medium-sized businesses continue to use UK standards These were consolidated and revised in 2013 and 2014 and now have simpler requirements more in keeping (in terms of length and detail, but not in substance) with those issued under International GAAP It now seems only a matter of time before all businesses will be using International GAAP A number of changes have been made in this new edition, some topics have moved within the book, some new ones have been added, and all the content has been updated Major changes include: ● The term ‘Income statement’ has been replaced throughout with, ‘Statement of profit or loss’ This is in line with the IFRS The change was requested by a number of users of the book who felt it more appropriate, not simply because it was recommended by the IASB, but because it reflected more accurately the content of the statement ● Chapter 2 has been retitled Purchases by instalments to better reflect its contents ● Chapter 11 has been renamed Accounting standards, related documents and accounting ethics It has been updated to incorporate international standards in issue in February 2015 and a new section, 11.49, Professional ethics, has been added in response to requests that students be made aware of this aspect of accountancy practice ● Chapter 12, The financial statements of limited companies: statements of profit or loss, related statements and notes, now includes a new Section 12.2 which contains what was previously in Sections 19 and 21 of Chapter 29, Accounting theory ix A01_WOOD5050_13_SE_FM.indd 17/07/15 4:43 pm Index decision-making (continued) costs needed 586 cues used 469 heuristics 469–71 individual, theories relating to 463,
