With the fourteenth edition of Financial and Managerial Accounting: The Basis for Business Decisions, the Williams author team carries on the tradition of being a solid foundation for students learning basic accounting concepts. Through the revision, the authors have further refined the financial accounting topics, while slightly expanding the managerial accounting material to provide even more balanced coverage.

Hallmarks of the text�including the solid Accounting Cycle Presentation, relevant pedagogy, and high quality, end-of-chapter material�have all been updated and enhanced through the revision. A new design enhances the graphical elements of the text, while the integration of several boxed elements provides a more streamlined approach to chapter topics.
