WIllis's Accounting for Lawyers

Accounting for Lawyers covers basic accounting concepts and terminology. The book, extensive glossary, and available slides are designed for students new to accounting, though more experienced students will also find them useful. They relate accounting concepts to many legal areas with practical problems involving employment contracts, family law, profit sharing, and much more.

The pedagogical approach is problem-oriented, with many practical, real-life exercises illustrating things such as:

• Depreciation, Amortization, and Depletion
• Accrual Accounting
• Inventories
• Cost Accounting
• Capital Structure
• Ratio Analysis
