Accounting and Finance for Lawyers in a Nutshell by Charles H. Meyer Pdf

The need for an understanding of accounting is now even more critical than ever for lawyers practicing in many areas including securities and corporate law and litigation. In addition, over the last several years, the Financial Accounting Standards Board has made some landmark changes in the accounting rules in areas of interest to lawyers, including the accounting for mergers and acquisitions. The Second Edition of Accounting and Finance For Lawyers includes important material on such areas as accounting for stock options and derivatives and the elimination of the pooling of interests method of accounting for acquisitions. There is a discussion of the accounting implications of the use of so-called special purpose entities. Finally, a chapter on international accounting issues reflects the increasing globalization of business and accounting. As in the First Edition, the basic building blocks of accounting are covered so that the material is accessible and useful to those with any level of accounting knowledge.

Introductory Accounting, Finance and Auditing for Lawyers by Lawrence A. Cunningham Pdf

Introductory Accounting, Finance and Auditing for Lawyers, Fourth Edition, continues to be packed with incisive substance on accounting and finance, and also emphasizes the role of auditing in the financial reporting process, an element given substantial new weight under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Fourth Edition reflects the significant developments in the world of accounting, finance and auditing, including those generated by the major scandals such as Enron and the responses generated by Sarbanes-Oxley, from the Act itself, to the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to the SEC. The book retains the same basic architecture, narrative style, problems, and pitch to law students as in previous editions, and adds substantial new material. Additions include three entirely new Chapters, several new Sections added to existing Chapters, new Tables, and enhanced technical formatting. New Chapters include Audit Practice, an introduction to the key features of a financial audit including an Illustration and Problem concerning the leading statistical sampling techniques auditors apply in tests of internal control over financial reporting. Another new Chapter is Finance Theory, a rigorous but still introductory account of modern portfolio theory, CAPM and efficient market theory with critiques from behavioral finance inspired in part by the Enron-style accounting scandals. Previous users of the book will find all the familiar Illustrations and Problems, along with a solid dose of new materials geared toward the increasing reliance being placed on auditing, audit committees, and corporate governance in the era ushered in by Sarbanes-Oxley and PCAOB.
