    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Financial Accounting: An Introduction 5e is aimed at first-year students following courses in financial accounting at universities and universities of technology. The book offers CA stream students a strong framework in preparation for further studies in accounting, while also teaching non-CA stream students financial literacy, a skill that will benefit them in both their personal and professional lives. Financial Accounting uses a unique narrative approach to tell the story of accounting. Each accounting concept is introduced through a problem to be solved by the central character, a young entrepreneur. Appropriate solutions to these problems are provided as guidance to students. The book does not simply teach accounting standards; it demonstrates both the reasons for and the methods of recording and reporting information, making each concept more relevant to students.
