Quantitative Models in Accounting
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Many accounting executives are expert in accounting, tax, and data-processing techniques but weak in dealing with mathematical and statistical models. Although they studied these models in business courses, they rarely meet them in practice until reaching fairly high levels in management. Belkaoui, a prolific author on accounting topics, provides a useful summary and review for executives in such a position. After a review of mathematics and statistics, Belkaoui covers cost-volume-profit analysis, regression analysis, learning curves, linear programming, cost variances, inventory models, capital budgeting, and network analysis. The coverage of these topics is somewhat condensed, but each chapter includes a bibliography that can guide the reader to further material.”–
