About Financial Accounting. Vol. 1

The accelerating globalisation of business has affected South Africa in many ways and the discipline of accounting has not been left untouched. Accounting is a challenging subject because it is always changing. These changes are reflected in this book, but the authors have not lost sight of the fact that the basic principles of accounting havenot altered since the invention of double-entry bookkeeping centuries ago. One has to learn to crawl before one can learn to walk. This is a fact of life and a reflection of life itself. With this in mind, many aspects of the intricacies of disclosure and the exact or complete disclosure requirements of generally accepted accounting practice were left for the more advanced student of accounting. This book is not intended to be a reference book. Rather, the following guidelines were adopted by the authors: simplicity, basic principles, creating knowledge blocks, practical application, demonstration by way of examples. To achieve this goal, the focus is on a handwritten system, thus avoiding the notion that the basics of accounting, like the processing of data and closing-off procedures, are mysterious activities that take place inside a computer. This notion seems to be a growing problem for serious students of accounting.
