This text combines a balanced explanation and analysis of the economic principles of taxation with a broad-based description and evaluation of the policy and practical aspects of the tax system operating in the UK, but also highlights some international comparisons. The clarity of style and authoritative coverage continue to distinguish the text in its presentation of topics.The two-part structure remains unaltered from the previous (fourth) edition; however in addition to comprehensive updating and revisions for the many changes in taxation policy and practice (including the 1995 Budget), and in developments in the literature, the text now includes a major expansion of the coverage of corporation tax; new material on tax compliance, tax ethics, tax planning and earmarked taxes; expanded coverage of inheritance tax and self-assessment; and a new chapter on international aspects of corporate income taxes and EU harmonisation.The teaching and learning features have been improved to comprise self-assessment and discussion questions at the end of each chapter; outline suggested answers to all the self-assessment questions are given at the end of the text. In addition to the integrated computational examples, the numerical illustrations which previously formed a separate chapter are, where appropriate, now incorporated with the relevant chapter. Annotated further reading suggestions, full references and a glossary of terms are also provided.

The 4th edition of this comprehensive international accounting text has been updated and restructured to reflect developments since 1991, both in the regulation and the teaching of the subject internationally. The text is authored by international authorities with local/regional expertise, and includes individual country studies from four continents and includes new chapters on "Asian Tiger" countries and international auditing. As such, it will remain, for readers globally, an authoritative, popular and accessible examination of the context and issues of comparative international accounting, as well as on the financial reporting in individual countries. This work is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in Comparative and International Accounting.

If you read the 'business pages' of a newspaper or if you listen to the financial news on television or radio, you will often hear terms such as 'liability', 'balance sheet' or 'earnings'. These terms turn up in non-financial contexts as well: 'he was more of a liability than an asset'. If you invest in shares, manage your family's personal finances, or sit on a committee of the property company which owns your apartment, you will receive financial statements. If you are a manager in a company, a hospital or a school, you will see accounting information often. This Very Short Introduction provides a guide to understanding and using accounting information. Christopher Nobes explains the main areas of accounting work, from bookkeeping and financial reporting to auditing and management accounting. Terms like 'debits', 'pre-tax income' and 'goodwill' are simplified and explained, making accounting a more approachable, understandable topic. About the Series: Oxford's Very Short Introductions series offers concise and original introductions to a wide range of subjects--from Islam to Sociology, Politics to Classics, Literary Theory to History, and Archaeology to the Bible. Not simply a textbook of definitions, each volume in this series provides trenchant and provocative--yet always balanced and complete--discussions of the central issues in a given discipline or field. Every Very Short Introduction gives a readable evolution of the subject in question, demonstrating how the subject has developed and how it has influenced society. Eventually, the series will encompass every major academic discipline, offering all students an accessible and abundant reference library. Whatever the area of study that one deems important or appealing, whatever the topic that fascinates the general reader, the Very Short Introductions series has a handy and affordable guide that will likely prove indispensable.

The clarity of style and authoritative coverage continue to distinguish this text as does its presentation of topics. The 1999/2000 edition has been fully up-dated to include changes to taxation announced in the Budget of March 1999. These changes relate mainly to the tax year 1999/2000, although some relate to subsequent years, as is pointed out in the appropriate places in the text.
