CONNECT FEATURES

Interactive Presentations Interactive Presentations cover each chapter’s core learning objectives with narrated, animated presentations that pause frequently to check for comprehension. Interactive Presentations harness the full power of technology to appeal to all learning styles. Interactive Presentations are a great way to improve online or hybrid sections, but also extend the learning opportunity for traditional classes, such as in facilitating a “fl ipped classroom.”

End-of-Chapter Material McGraw-Hill Education redesigned the student interface for our end-of-chapter assessment content. The new interface provides improved answer acceptance to reduce students’ frustration with formatting issues (such as rounding) and, for select questions, provides an expanded table that guides students through the process of solving the problem. Many questions have been redesigned to more fully test students’ mastery of the content.

Guided Examples Guided Examples provide narrated and animated step-by-step walkthroughs of algorithmic versions of assigned exercises. This allows students to identify, review, or reinforce the concepts and activities covered in class. Guided Examples provide immediate feedback and focus on the areas where students need the most guidance.

Connect generates comprehensive reports and graphs that provide instructors with an instant view of the performance of individual students, a specifi c section, or multiple sections. Since all content is mapped to learning objectives, Connect reporting is ideal for accreditation or other administrative documentation.

General Ledger New to 5e are General Ledger problems that offer students the ability to see how transactions post from the general journal all the way through the fi nancial statements. General Ledger (GL) questions provide auto-grading in the same intelligent design as our end-of-chapter content. Critical thinking and analysis components are added to each GL problem to ensure understanding of the entire process.

POWERFUL PERFORMANCE REPORTING

Connect Insight The fi rst and only analytics tool of its kind, Connect Insight is a series of visual data displays that are each framed by an intuitive question and provide at-a-glance information regarding how an instructor’s class is performing. Connect Insight is available through Connect titles.

Excel Simulations Assignable within Connect Accounting, Excel Simulations allow students to practice their Excel skills—such as basic formulas and formatting—within the context of accounting. These questions feature animated, narrated Help and Show Me tutorials (when enabled). These simulations are auto-graded and provide instant feedback to the student.

Managerial Accounting, 5e

Adapting to the Needs of Today’s Students

Enhancements in technology have changed how we live and learn. Working with learning resources across devices, whether smartphones, tablets, or laptop computers, empowers students to drive their own learning by putting increasingly intelligent technology into their hands.

Whether the goal is to become an accountant, a business- person, or simply an informed consumer of accounting information, Managerial Accounting (MA) has helped gen- erations of students succeed. Its leading-edge accounting content, paired with state-of-the-art technology, supports student learning and elevates understanding of key accounting principles.

MA excels at engaging students with content that will help them see the relevance of accounting. Its chapter- opening vignettes showcase dynamic, successful entrepreneurial indi- viduals and companies and highlight the usefulness of accounting to business owners. This edition’s featured com- panies—Apple, Google, and Samsung— capture student interest with their products, and their annual reports serve as a pathway for learning financial statements. New in this edition, Need-to-Know illustrations in each chapter demon- strate how to apply key accounting procedures. They are supported by guided video presentations.

MA also delivers innovative technology to help student per- formance. Connect Accounting provides students with a media-rich eBook version of the textbook and offers instant grading and feedback for assignments that are completed online. Our system for completing exercise and problem material takes accounting content to the next level, deliver- ing assessment material in a more intuitive, less restrictive format that adapts to the needs of today’s students.

This technology features:

• an auto-calculation feature that allows students to focus on concepts rather than rote tasks.

• a smart (auto-fill) drop-down design. • a general journal interface that looks and feels more

like that found in practice.

The end result is content that better prepares students for the real world.

Connect Accounting also includes digitally based, interactive, adaptive learning tools that provide an opportunity to

engage students more effectively by offering varied instructional methods and more personalized learning paths that build on different learning styles, interests, and abilities.

The revolutionary technology of the LearnSmart Advantage Series—consisting of LearnSmart® and SmartBook®—is available only from McGraw-Hill Education. These prod- ucts are based on an intelligent learning system that uses a series of adaptive questions to pinpoint each student’s knowledge gaps and then provides an optimal learning path. Students spend less time in areas they already know and more time in areas they don’t. The result: Students study more efficiently, learn faster, and retain more knowl- edge. Valuable reports provide insights into how students are progressing through textbook content and informa- tion useful for shaping in-class time or assessment.

Interactive Presentations teach each chapter’s core learn- ing objectives in a rich, multimedia format, bringing the content to life. Your students will come to class prepared when you assign Interactive Presentations. Students can also review the Interactive Presentations as they study. Further, Guided Examples provide students with narrated, animated, step-by-step walk-throughs of algorithmic ver- sions of assigned exercises. Students appreciate the Guided Examples, which help them learn accounting and complete assignments outside of class.

A General Ledger (GL) application, new to 5e, offers stu- dents the ability to see how transactions post from the general journal all the way through the financial state- ments. It uses the intuitive, less restrictive format used for other homework, and it adds critical thinking components to each GL question, to ensure understanding of the entire process.

The first and only analytics tool of its kind, Connect Insight® is a series of visual data displays—each framed by an intuitive question—to provide at-a-glance information about how your class is doing. Connect Insight provides a quick analysis on five key dimensions, available at a moment’s notice from a tablet device: How are my stu- dents doing? How is my section doing? How is this student doing? How are my assignments going? and How is this assignment going?

Easy to Use. Proven Effective. McGraw-Hill CONNECT ACCOUNTING McGraw-Hill Connect Accounting is a digital teaching and learning environment that gives students the means to bet- ter connect with their coursework, with their instructors, and with the important concepts they will need to know for success now and in the future. With Connect Accounting, instructors can easily deliver assignments, quizzes, and tests online. Students can review course material and practice important skills.

McGraw-Hill Connect Accounting provides all of the following learning and teaching resources:

• SmartBook, powered by LearnSmart • Auto-graded Excel simulations • Auto-graded online homework • Interactive Presentations • General ledger problems • Guided Examples

In short, Connect Accounting offers students powerful tools and features that optimize their time and energy, enabling them to focus on learning.

SmartBook, Powered by LearnSmart McGraw-Hill LearnSmart® is the market-leading adaptive study resource that is proven to strengthen memory recall, increase class retention, and boost grades. LearnSmart

allows students to study more efficiently because they are made aware of what they know and don’t know.

SmartBook®, which is powered by LearnSmart, is the first and only adaptive reading experience designed to change the way students read and learn. It creates a personalized reading experience by highlighting the most impactful concepts a student needs to learn at that moment in time. As a student engages with SmartBook, the reading experience continu- ously adapts by highlighting content based on what the student knows and doesn’t know. This ensures that the focus is on the content he or she needs to learn, while simultaneously promoting long-term retention of material.

Use SmartBook’s real-time reports to quickly identify the concepts that require more attention from individual students— or the entire class. The end result? Students are more engaged with course content, can better prioritize their time, and come to class ready to participate.

Tailored to You. Online Assignments Connect Accounting helps students learn more efficiently by pro- viding feedback and practice material when they need it, where they need it. Connect grades homework automatically and gives immediate feedback on any questions students may have missed. Our assignable, gradable end-of-chapter content includes a gen- eral journal application that looks and feels more like what you would find in a general ledger software package. Also, select ques- tions have been redesigned to test students’ knowledge more fully. They now include tables for students to work through rather than requiring that all calculations be done off-line. McGraw-Hill’s redesigned student interface provides a real-world feel to interactive assignments and end-of-chapter assessment content. This robust accounting software allows for flexibility in learning styles and provides opportunities for courses to be delivered in traditional, online, and blended settings.

General Ledger Problems New General Ledger problems for select questions enable students to see how transactions post from the general journal all the way through the financial statements. It provides a much-improved experience for students working with account-

ing cycle questions. Students’ work in the general journal is automati- cally posted to the ledger, navigation is much simpler, scrolling is no longer an issue, and students can easily link back to their original en- tries simply by clicking the ledger if edits are needed. Many questions now have critical thinking components added, to maximize students’ foundational knowledge of accounting concepts and principles.

ix

Interactive Presentations Interactive Presentations provide engaging narratives of all chapter learning objectives in an assignable interactive online format. They follow the structure of the text and are organized to match the specific learning objectives within each chapter. While the Interactive Presentations are not meant to replace the textbook, they provide ad-

ditional explanation and enhance- ment of material from the text chapter, allowing students to learn, study, and practice at their own pace, with instant feedback.

Guided Examples The Guided Examples in Connect Accounting provide a narrated, animated, step-by-step walk- through of select exercises simi- lar to those assigned. These short presentations, which can be turned on or off by instruc- tors, provide reinforcement when students need it most.

Excel Simulations Simulated Excel questions, assignable within Connect Accounting, allow stu- dents to practice their Excel skills—such as basic formulas and formatting— within the context of accounting. These questions feature animated, narrated Help and Show Me tutorials (when enabled), as well as automatic feedback and grading for both students and professors.

Using Accounting for Decisions Whether we prepare, analyze, or apply accounting informa- tion, one skill remains essential: decision making. To help de- velop good decision-making habits and to illustrate the relevance of accounting, we use a pedagogical framework we call the Decision Center. This framework encompasses a vari- ety of approaches and subject areas, giving students insight into every aspect of business decision making; see the four nearby examples for the different types of decision boxes, in- cluding those that relate to ethics. Answers to Decision Maker and Ethics boxes are at the end of each chapter.

“Authors do a good job of relating material to real-life situations and putting students in the decision-maker role.”

—MORGAN ROCKETT, Moberly Area Community College

Decision Insight

Make or Buy IT Companies apply make or buy decisions to their ser- vices. Many now outsource their information technology activities. Information technology companies provide infrastructure and services to en- able businesses to focus on their key activities. It is argued that outsourcing saves money and streamlines operations, and without the headaches. ■

Production Manager You invite three friends to a restaurant. When the dinner check arrives, David, a self- employed entrepreneur, picks it up saying, “Here, let me pay. I’ll deduct it as a business expense on my tax re- turn.” Denise, a salesperson, takes the check from David’s hand and says, “I’ll put this on my company’s credit card. It won’t cost us anything.” Derek, a factory manager for a company, laughs and says, “Neither of you under- stands. I’ll put this on my company’s credit card and call it overhead on a cost-plus contract my company has with a client.” (A cost-plus contract means the company receives its costs plus a percent of those costs.) Adds Derek, “That way, my company pays for dinner and makes a profit.” Who should pay the bill? Why? ■ [Answers follow the chapter’s Summary.]

CAP Model The Conceptual/Analytical/Procedural (CAP) Model allows courses to be specially designed to meet the teaching needs of a diverse faculty. This model identifies learning objectives, tex- tual materials, assignments, and test items by C, A, or P, allowing different instructors to teach from the same materials, yet easily customize their courses toward a conceptual, analytical, or procedural approach (or a combination thereof) based on personal preferences.

Setting Product PriceDecision Analysis

Relevant costs are useful to management in determining prices for special short-term decisions. But lon- ger run pricing decisions of management need to cover both variable and fixed costs, and yield a profit. There are several methods to help management in setting prices. The cost-plus methods are probably the most common, where management adds a markup to cost to reach a target price. We will describe the total cost method, where management sets price equal to the product’s total costs plus a desired profit on the product. This is a four-step process:

1. Determine total costs.

A2 Determine product selling price based on total costs.

Total costs 5 Production (direct materials, Nonproduction (selling and direct labor, and overhead) costs 1 administrative) costs

Need-to-Know Illustrations New in this edition are several Need-to-Know illustrations lo- cated at key junctures in each chapter. These illustrations pose questions about the material just presented—content that students “need to know” to successfully learn accounting. Accompanying solutions walk students through key procedures and analysis necessary to be successful with homework and test materials. Need-to-Know illustrations are supplemented with narrated, animated, step-by-step walk-through videos led by an instructor and available via Connect.

“I like the layout of the text and the readability. The illustrations and comics in the book make the text seem less intimidating and boring for students. The PowerPoint slides are easy to understand and use, the pictorials are great, and the text has great coverage of accounting material. The addition of IFRS information and the updates to the opening stories are great. I like that the decision insights are about businesses the students can relate to (i.e., Facebook, women start-up businesses, etc.).”

—JEANNIE LIU, Chaffey College

Global View The Global View section explains interna- tional accounting practices relating to the material covered in that chapter. The aim of this section is to describe accounting practices and to identify the similarities and differences in international accounting practices versus those in the United States. As we move toward global convergence in accounting practices, and as we witness the likely convergence of U.S. GAAP to IFRS, the importance of student familiarity with international accounting grows. This inno- vative section helps us begin down that path. This section is purposefully located at the end of each chapter so that each in- structor can decide what emphasis, if at all, is to be assigned to it.

A manufacturing company applied $300,000 of overhead to its jobs during the year. For the independent scenarios below, prepare the journal entry to adjust over- or underapplied overhead. Assume the adjust- ment amounts are not material. 1. Actual overhead costs incurred during the year equal $305,000. 2. Actual overhead costs incurred during the year equal $298,500.

Sustainability and Accounting New in this edition are brief sections that highlight the importance of sustainability within the broader context of global accounting (and accountability). Companies increasingly address sustainability in their public reporting and consider the sustainabil- ity accounting standards (from the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board) and the expectations of our global society. These boxes, located near the end of the Global View section, cover different as- pects of sustainability, often within the context of the chapter’s featured entrepreneurial company.

Sustainability and Accounting LSTN, as introduced in this chapter’s opening feature, places an emphasis on being a socially conscious and environmentally friendly alternative within the luxury headphone market. LSTN partners with The Starkey Hearing Foundation “to provide hearing for children in deaf schools,” explains Bridget Hilton, its founder. “Ninety-five percent of children in deaf schools worldwide can be helped . . . [and] eighty percent of those people live in developing countries.” LSTN also recognizes the need to work within the local markets so that its successes are sustainable. Our hearing products and services “will not undercut the local economies—these are basic senses that everyone on earth should be able to experience,” explains Bridget. “To me, success in business is doing something you love while being financially secure.” That is something we all hope is sustainable.

GLOBAL VIEW Porsche AG manufactures high-performance cars. Each car is built according to individual customer specifications. Customers can use the Internet to place orders for their dream cars. Porsche employs just-in-time inventory tech- niques to ensure a flexible production process that can re- spond rapidly to customer orders. For a recent year, Porsche reported €33,781 million in costs of materials and €9,038 million in personnel costs, which helped generate €57,081 million in revenue.

Sustainability and Accounting Porsche’s sustain- ability efforts extend beyond its manufacturing operations to event management. Each year when the company sponsors a professional tennis tournament, it uses a Porsche Cayenne Hybrid to shuttle players to and from the venue. In addition, the company sells event tickets that include public transportation, thus reducing the number of distinct journeys to the venue by about 30%. In addition, Middleton Made Knives applies sustainablity through Quintin Middleton’s choice of materials. The steel used for his knife blades can be recycled, and new trees can be planted to supply the wood for his knife blades.
