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.

Jacqui Kew is Senior lecturer in the Department of Accounting at the University of Cape Town. Alex Watson is Professor in the Department of Accounting at the University of Cape Town, Chairperson of the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants' Accounting Practices Committee, and member of the International Accounting Standards Committee Foundation's Education Advisory Group.
