Among the major professions, certified public accountancy has the most severe underrepresentation of African Americans: less than 1 percent of CPAs are black. Theresa Hammond explores the history behind this statistic and chronicles the courage and determination of African Americans who sought to enter the field. In the process, she expands our understanding of the links between race, education, and economics. Drawing on interviews with pioneering black CPAs, among other sources, Hammond sets the stories of black CPAs against the backdrop of the rise of accountancy as a profession, the particular challenges that African Americans trying to enter the field faced, and the strategies that enabled some blacks to become CPAs. Prior to the 1960s, few white-owned accounting firms employed African Americans. Only through nationwide networks established by the first black CPAs did more African Americans gain the requisite professional experience. The civil rights era saw some progress in integrating the field, and black colleges responded by expanding their programs in business and accounting. In the 1980s, however, the backlash against affirmative action heralded the decline of African American participation in accountancy and paved the way for the astonishing lack of diversity that characterizes the field today.
Synopsis: INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING by Kieso, Weygandt, and Warfield is, quite simply, the standard by which all other intermediate accounting texts are measured. Through thirty years and twelve best-selling editions, the text has built a reputation for accuracy, comprehensiveness, and student success.
The new eighth edition of Financial Accounting: Tools for Decision-Making, Canadian Edition by Kimmel, Weygandt, Kieso, Trenholm, Irvine and Burnley continues to provide the best tools for both instructors and students to succeed in their introductory financial accounting class. It helps students understand the purpose and use of financial accounting, whether they plan to become accountants or whether they simply need it for their personal life or career. The book's unique, balanced procedural and conceptual (user-oriented) approach, proven pedagogy and breadth of problem material has made Financial Accounting the most popular introductory text in Canada. This hands-on text, paired with a powerful online teaching and learning environment offers students a practical set of tools for use in making business decisions based on financial information.
With this fourth edition, accountants will acquire a practical set of tools and the confidence they need to use them effectively in making business decisions. It better reflects a more conceptual and decision-making approach to the material. The authors follow a "macro- to micro-" strategy by starting with a discussion of real financial statements first, rather than starting with the Accounting Cycle. The objective is to establish how a financial statement communicates the financing, investing, and operating activities of a business to users of accounting information. This motivates accountants by grounding the discussion in the real world, showing them the relevance of the topics covered to their careers.
