Accounting is how businesses measure their success or failure. It can be extremely useful, but it also has flaws.
An accounting principles course organized around the idea of accounting as a measurement system offers a stimulating way to organize and teach financial and managerial topics in a concise yet comprehensive and intellectually stimulating way.
