Accounting Students Are Unable to Recognize the Various Types of Accounting Functions.
Frank, Gary B.; And Others
Journal of Education for Business, v64 n5 p197-201 Feb 1989
The authors discuss 258 undergraduate business majors' perceptions of the nature and uses of financial and managerial accounting. Perceptions were measured with Stapel Scales constructed on 11 descriptive statements. Findings indicated that students distinguish between financial and managerial accounting, but that they do not view the two as unique disciplines. (CH)
