Managerial-finance

The authors research the claims of the accounting profession about the importance of knowing the "accounting language" to make it in business. But find it not to be so. The information mosaic a manager truly uses is (1) close to where the action is in the different functional units of the organization and (2) tied to primary units of activity and not the monetary units used in the mainstream accounting practice.

As a student, I have found this book to be a very difficult read. The chapters were filled with impossible to understand details. Perhaps for a practitioner the book is useful, but as an introductory textbook in a university course, it proved to be a very thick volume with litte useful information.

I being a first time reader of this book actually fell in love with the book. It is self explanatory and will leads u to become a good IT auditor if u got a comprehensive auditing back groud. i appreciate the effort by mr weber.

I HAVE READ THE EARLIER BOOK 1988 OF THE SAME AUTHOR.THIS BOOK(EARLIER) HAS HELPED A LOT IN MY PROFESSION. NO BOOK HAS THIS MUCH DETAIL RIGHT FROM THE PROGRAME DESIGNING STAGE TILL THE MAINTENANCE. ESPECIALLY FOR THEAUDIT TEAM WHO ARE IN FIs AND BANKS THIS WILL SERVE AS A POWERFUL TOOL IN WRITING REPORTS CONTROLS. ETC. IT WOULD BE BETTER IF THE EDITION COMES OUT WITH ASIAN EDITION SO THAT WE CAN ACCESS TO THIS BOOK BY RON WEBER
