A Dictionary of Accounting (5th edition)

This dictionary has successfully retained its place as a “go-to” handy reference tool for students and professionals. It is good to consult when terms in textbooks and monographs seem obscure, and above all, if your first language is not English and if your understanding of idiomatic and specialist accounting and finance argot is imperfect. It offers, too, the advantage of clear, concise and objective definitions and explanations of well-chosen key terms most likely to be needed – and needing to be interpreted – by practitioners.

It has been imaginatively edited for this fifth edition by Jonathan Law and his colleagues....
