Accounting is the process of identifying, measuring, recording, and communicating financial information about economic activities. Accounting helps users make better decisions by providing relevant and reliable information about the performance and financial position of an entity. Accounting can be divided into two main branches: financial accounting and managerial accounting.

Financial accounting focuses on providing information to external users, such as investors, creditors, regulators, and tax authorities. Financial accounting follows generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that are established by standard-setting bodies, such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the United States. Financial accounting produces financial statements, such as the income statement, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows, and the statement of stockholders' equity, that summarize the financial activities and position of an entity for a period of time.
Managerial accounting focuses on providing information to internal users, such as managers, employees, and owners. Managerial accounting does not follow GAAP, but rather uses cost-benefit analysis to determine the most useful and relevant information for decision making. Managerial accounting produces various reports, such as budgets, performance reports, variance analyses, product costing reports, and segment reports, that help managers plan, control, and evaluate the operations and performance of an entity.
Accounting: Concepts and Applications is a textbook that covers both financial and managerial accounting topics in a clear and engaging way. The book is written by W. Steve Albrecht, James D.
