Managerial Accounting for Undergraduates

by Theodore Christensen Scott Hobson James Wallace

Many undergraduate managerial accounting textbooks focus primarily on calculations and formulas and how to apply these accounting skills in a manufacturing environment. However, business professionals must be able to apply their technical accounting knowledge and expertise in a broader context in making good business decisions. Moreover, because the U.S. market is increasingly service oriented, professionals must develop experience in applying these skills to decision making in a service environment. Having spent several years supplementing existing textbook problems with more real-world and service industry examples, we saw a need for a new approach. Hence, we focus on helping students to (1) develop strong analytical skills and (2) apply them in realistic decision-making contexts. Finally, we have written the book with a heavy emphasis on managerial decisions in service and merchandising enterprises. Managerial Accounting for Undergraduates is intended for use in the first managerial accounting course at the undergraduate level-one that balances the development of management accounting tools with their implementation in decision making. This book teaches future business professionals how to read, analyze, and interpret accounting and other company, industry, and economic data to make informed business decisions.

Managing Hospitality Human Resources

by Robert Woods

<p>HUMAN resources is an ever-changing field. Keeping up with it is mandatory for hospitality business leaders for a variety of reasons, including remaining in compliance with government regulations and developing an effective hospitality service organization. <p>When the first edition of Managing Hospitality Human Resources came out in 1994, there were real reasons for the hospitality industry to worry about having enough employees in the future. During the 1990s, hospitality suffered from a shortage of employees, high turnover rates, and image issues in some areas. By the late 2000s the turnover issue had been mostly addressed, although the potential for recurrence of the problem still persists. Hospitality's image has been greatly repaired from the days of the Resolution Trust Corporation in 1989 and similarly troubled organizations in the years after, when many hotels were auctioned off after hundreds of savings and loan organizations failed. The industry became much leaner, and stayed lean due in part to the Great Recession, which officially began in December of 2007. Hospitality organizations today are pretty savvy. As a general rule, they stay on top of human resources issues and have developed many new HR programs to improve the hospitality workplace and help end the impression that a hospitality job is a way station in life--an image that has persisted for much of the industry's modern existence.</p>
