Hoskin: Financial Accounting: A User Perspective has given a new direction to accounting education in Canada. Through two very successful editions, this book has maintained its unique focus on the uses of accounting information while presenting accounting concepts in a traditional framework. Students learn about underlying accounting concepts and accounting systems and get to apply that information from a user perspective.

Unlike other books, Hoskin: Financial Accounting uses the analysis of real companies? financial information as the focal point for the user perspective. This unique approach has allowed all students, majors and non-majors alike, to gain the solid understanding of accounting that they will need to succeed in business.
