Product Description
Offering concise, user-friendly coverage of core topics, this essential text provides a strong foundation for courses in Accounting Information Systems and gives instructors the flexibility they need to meet their individual course objectives. The text is an excellent stand-alone resource for a shorter course in accounting information systems, or the perfect foundation textbook for a longer class in which you choose to integrate other materials such as software manuals, casebooks, and readings.

Newly updated and revised for 2005, the Ninth Edition welcomes new coauthor Carolyn Strand Norman, and provides the latest information on e-commerce, XBRL, enterprise-wide software, data modeling and databases, computer technology, and more. Students will discover how accounting information systems collect, record, and store business data; learn how to develop effective internal control systems; and examine the accountant’s role in designing, developing, implementing, and maintaining accounting information systems.

5 out of 5 starsGood source., 2007-07-05
I read the one review on this book and I don't agree. I think if you don't know anything about accounting information systems this book might appear to be scattered. However, if you have some exposure to AIS(Accounting Information Systems) you'll immediately recognize the flow of topics is typical of the subject. The author is very thorough and organized in his coverage and gives required insight. A book about AIS is not going to read like an accounting textbook, nor are the topics going to be mastered in the same way. I really liked the book. I originally read the library's copy, but I bought my own because it was so good and I wanted a copy.

This book is very disorganized. One chapter is flowcharts, next is viruses, next is flowcharts, lets talk about sarbanes oaxley and than flow charts again, now maybe some discussion about SAP and reducing clerical costs then some ERP architecture.


Where they just throwing darts at a piece of paper with topics?

Also, no attempt at a solutions manual to the poorly worded questions. Poorly worded questions which also content wise where pretty stupid, (ie bob notices 50$ missing from his petty cash fund every week, he leaves the counter and he has many people manning the store including janitors. What are preventive controls he can implement)
