And while there is no shortage of financial-related textbooks or reference manuals, most assume that readers have educational backgrounds - and/or have had years of professional experience - in accounting, financial analysis, or corporate finance. This book targets professionals with limited exposure to - or formal training in - accounting or related finance disciplines. These individuals often include - but certainly are not limited to - engineers, information technology specialists, retail managers, entrepreneurs, marketing directors, construction contractors, attorneys, and even bankers who are making career transitions from consumer lending positions to become commercial loan officers. The primary purpose of this book is to help managers and business owners from diverse professional and educational backgrounds to: (1) converse more effectively with their accounting and finance colleagues; (2) understand the structure and the elements of general-purpose financial statements, (3) identify both the usefulness and the limitations of accounting information; (4) prepare basic financial forecasts; and (5) make sense of commonly used decision-making models. 410 0$aFinancial accounting and auditing collection.$x2151-2817 517 3 $aUsing accounting and financial information. 606 $aAccounting 606 $aFinancial statements 610 $aAccruals 610 $aaccounting 610 $afinancial statements 610 $abalance sheet 610 $aincome statement 610 $astatement of cash flows 610 $aassets 610 $adeferrals 610 $aliabilities 610 $aequity 610 $arevenue 610 $aexpenses 610 $acash flow 610 $afinancial analysis 610 $afinancial management 610 $aprofitability 610 $asolvency 610 $aliquidity 610 $abudgeting 610 $adecision-making 610 $afinancial forecasting 610 $apro forma financial statements 610 $acost-volume-profit analysis 610 $abreakeven 610 $acapital budgeting 610 $apayback period 610 $adiscounted present-value 610 $ainternal rate of return 610 $anet present value 610 $atime-value of money 615 0$aAccounting. 615 0$aFinancial statements. 676 $a657 700 $aBettner$b Mark S.$01558753 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787397603321 996 $aUsing accounting & financial information$93823394 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06044nam 22007335 450 001 9910299819603321 005 20200701080424.0 010 $a3-319-18606-X 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-18606-1 035 $a(CKB)3710000000416838 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001501146 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11848536 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001501146 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11523079 035 $a(PQKB)10770112 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-18606-1 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6299256 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5588130 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL5588130 035 $a(OCoLC)910667750 035 $a(PPN)186029861 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000416838 100 $a20150527d2015 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAccuracy and Fuzziness.

Some of the contributions in this book develop technical, state-of-the-art themes obviously related to fuzzy logic, while others resemble popular-science articles that shed light on complex mathematical concepts. There are also chapters that highlight the authors? personal relationships and experiences working with Enric Trillas. While planning this book project, the editors decided to give contributors absolute freedom of thought and expression in preparing their chapters. The result is a colorful and inspiring mixture of styles and topics, which perfectly reflects Enric Trillas?s multifaceted contributions to research and his outstanding role in promoting education and technological transfer in the field of soft computing. This Festschrift to Enric Trillas, published on the occasion of his 75th birthday, is not only intended as an exemplary source of information for young scientists dealing with uncertainty, imprecision and accuracy of models, but also as an inspiring guide to the role of scientists in education, politics and communication.    . 410 0$aStudies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing,$x1434-9922 ;$v323 606 $aComputational intelligence 606 $aComputer science?Mathematics 606 $aMathematics 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aComputational Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11014 606 $aMath Applications in Computer Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I17044 606 $aPopular Science in Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q26000 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 615 0$aComputational intelligence. 615 0$aComputer science?Mathematics. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aComputational Intelligence. 615 24$aMath Applications in Computer Science. 615 24$aPopular Science in Mathematics. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a511.322 700 $aArgüelles Méndez$b Luis$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0760800 702 $aSeising$b Rudolf$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299819603321 996 $aAccuracy and Fuzziness.
