Author Letter

We use data to make decisions and maximize performance. Like the mountain biker on the cover who uses data to track his progress, we used student performance data to identify content areas that can be made more direct, concise, and systematic.

Learning science reveals that students do not read large chunks of text, so we streamlined this edition to present it in a more focused, succinct, blocked format to improve student learning and retention. Our new edition delivers the same content in 115

6

fewer pages. Visual aids and numerous videos offer additional learning aids. New summary Cheat Sheets conclude each chapter to visually reinforce key concepts and procedures.

Our new edition has over 1,500 videos to engage students and improve outcomes:

Concept Overview Videos—cover each chapter’s learning objectives with multimedia presentations that include Knowledge Checks to engage students and assess comprehension. Need-to-Know Demos—walk-through demonstrations of key procedures and analysis to ensure success with assignments and tests. Guided Examples (Hints)—step-by-step walk-through of assignments that mimic Quick Studies, Exercises, and General Ledger.

Difference Makers in Teaching . . . Learning Science Learning analytics show that students learn better when material is broken into “blocks” of content. Each chapter opens with a visual preview. Learning objective numbers highlight the location of related content. Each “block” of content concludes with a Need- to-Know (NTK) to aid and reinforce student learning. Visual aids and concise, bullet-point discussions further help students learn.

New Revenue Recognition

Wild uses the popular gross method for merchandising transactions (net method is covered in an appendix). The gross method is widely used in practice and best for student success. Adjusting entries for new revenue recognition rules are included in an appendix. Assignments are clearly marked and separated. Wild is GAAP compliant.

Up-to-Date This book reflects changes in accounting for revenue recognition, investments, leases,

and extraordinary items. It is important that students learn GAAP accounting.

Less Is More Wild has markedly fewer pages than competing books covering the same material.

The text is to the point and uses visuals to aid student learning. Bullet-point discussions and active writing aids learning. The 24th edition has 115 fewer pages than the 23rd edition—a 10% reduction!

Visual Learning

Learning analytics tell us today’s students do not read large blocks of text. Wild has adapted to student needs by having informative visual aids throughout. Many visuals and exhibits are new to this edition.

Videos

A growing number of students now learn accounting online. Wild offers over 1,500 videos designed to increase student engagement and improve outcomes. Hundreds of hint videos or Guided Examples provide a narrated, animated, step-by- step walk-through of select exercises similar to those assigned. These short presentations, which can be turned on or off by instructors, provide reinforcement when students need it most. (Exercise PowerPoints are available for instructors.) Concept Overview Videos cover each chapter’s learning objectives with narrated, animated presentations that frequently assess comprehension. Wild has concept overview presentations covering 228 Learning Objectives broken down into over 700 videos.

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

Comprehensive Need-to-Know Comprehensive Need-to-Knows are problems that draw on material from the entire chapter. They include a complete solution, allowing students to review the entire problem-solving process and achieve success.

Driving Decisions Whether we prepare, analyze, or apply accounting information, one skill remains essential: decision making. To help develop good decision-making habits and to show the relevance of accounting, we use a learning framework.

10

Decision Insight provides context for business decisions. Decision Ethics and Decision Maker are role-playing scenarios that show the relevance of accounting. Decision Analysis provides key tools to assess company performance.

Accounting Analytics New to this edition, Accounting Analysis assignments have students evaluate the most current financial statements from Apple, Google, and Samsung. Students compute key metrics and compare performance between companies and industry. These assignments are auto-gradable in Connect and are included after Problem Set B in the text.

11

Page vii

Keep It Real Research shows that students learn best when using current data from real companies. Wild uses the most current data from real companies for assignments, examples, and analysis in the text. See Chapter 17 for use of real data.

Cheat Sheets New to this edition, Cheat Sheets are provided at the end of each chapter. Cheat Sheets are roughly one page in length and include key procedures, concepts, journal entries, and formulas.

12

Doing What’s Right Companies increasingly issue sustainability reports, and accountants are being asked to prepare, analyze, and audit them. Wild includes brief sections in the managerial chapters. This material focuses on the importance of sustainability within the context of accounting, including standards from the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB). Sustainability assignments cover chapter material with a social responsibility twist.

SUPERIOR ASSIGNMENTS Connect helps students learn more efficiently by providing feedback and practice material when they need it, where they need it. Connect grades homework automatically and gives immediate feedback.

Wild has auto-gradable and algorithmic assignments; most focus on one learning objective and are targeted at introductory students. 90% of Wild’s Quick Study, Exercise, and Problem Set A assignments are available in Connect with algorithmic options. Over 210 assignments new to this edition—all available in Connect with algorithmic options. Nearly all are Quick Studies (brief exercises) and Exercises.

NEW! Concept Overview Videos Concept Overview Videos teach each chapter’s learning objectives through an engaging multimedia presentation. These learning tools enhance the text through video, audio, and checkpoint questions that can be graded—ensuring students complete and comprehend the material. Concept Overview Videos harness the power of technology to appeal to all learning styles and are ideal in all class formats. The Concept Overview Videos replace the previous edition’s Interactive Presentations.

General Ledger Problems General Ledger Problems offer students the ability to record financial transactions and see how these transactions flow into financial statements. Easy minimal-scroll navigation, instant “Check My Work” feedback, and fully integrated hyperlinking across tabs show how inputted data affects each stage of the accounting process. General Ledger Problems expose students to general ledger software similar to that in practice, without the expense and hassle of downloading additional software. Algorithmic versions are available. All are auto-gradable.

Applying Excel Applying Excel enables students to work select chapter problems or examples in Excel. These problems are assignable in Connect and give students instant feedback as they work through the problem in Excel. Accompanying Excel videos teach students how to use Excel and the primary functions needed to complete the assignment. Short assessments can be assigned to test student comprehension of key Excel skills.

18

Excel Simulations Simulated Excel Questions, assignable within Connect, 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), as well as automatic feedback and grading for both students and professors. These questions differ from Applying Excel in that students work in a simulated version of Excel. Downloading the Excel application is not required to complete Simulated Excel Questions.

Guided Examples The Guided Examples (Hints) in Connect provide a narrated, animated, step-by-step walk- through of most Quick Studies, Exercises, and General Ledger Problems similar to those assigned. These short presentations can be turned on or off by instructors and provide reinforcement when students need it most.

Exercise Presentations Animated PowerPoints, created from text assignments, enable instructors to be fully prepared for in-class demonstrations. Instructors also can use these with Tegrity (in Connect) to record online lectures.
