At the beginning of the current year, John Mifsud published the text-book entitled Intermediate Financial Accounting. The aim of this book is to provide students following Intermediate Accounting with enough notes, examples and exercises to cover the Financial Accounting section of the Intermediate Matriculation Accounting syllabus, which comprises approximately 80% of the said syllabus.
This book is suitable for those students who do not have any previous knowledge of accounting since it starts with the most basic concepts. The book includes 121 worked out examples and 159 exercises, structured and sequenced according to increasing difficulty in order to create a space conducive to learning.
At the beginning of each chapter one finds the learning outcomes which the learner is expected to acquire by the end of the chapter. The key accounting terms of each chapter are summarised at the end of the chapter for quick reference and to facilitate studying. The book is printed in full-colour as the author believes that the use of different colours is a powerful pedagogical tool that facilitates learning.
