5.0 out of 5 stars
The Perfect Management Decision Making tool for C-Level Managers,
By Nikiforos Chatzopoulos, PMP (Singapore, Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Management Accounting for Decision Makers (Paperback)
Very well structured and written, pointing right to the subject and providing
information on what are the management accounting practices combined with financial ones. It connects the dots on how these two fundamentals are inter-related and illustrates the pros and cons based on real case studies. It has a plethora of exercises and examples that will assist the reader to practice and understand the topics more thoroughly. A perfect book for decisions makers especially the ones engaged in international markets. It can be easily used for Program Managers being members of Steering Committees.

The book was the best price and was described as used and in used condition. The item arrived quickly and was pretty much like brand new.

Good But Could be Better,
By

This review is from: Management Accounting for Decision Makers (Paperback)
The book is well structured and provides a lot of practice exercises and activities that help understand the concepts. However, very often the "real world" examples are not very relevant, whether very old surveys or irrelevant in content to the main point being made in a particular section. Nevertheless, the book gives a broad perspective on management accounting and points out the imperfections and opportunities for improvement in real life practice, unlike conventional books that present theories as ideals.
