It is well said that ‘change is the only permanent thing in this world’. Therefore, any change in curriculum of a subject is part of natural process of development. Advancement in knowledge is possible only if a subject is taught and learned differently, at different times. Since Sant Gadgebaba Amravati University is adopting new syllabus for B.Com. (Part – I) Semester I Students of Commerce, it is our duty to present necessary learning material to them.
We have great pleasure in presenting the text book on, ‘Financial Accounting’ for B.Com. (Part -I), Semester I students. It has been written in a teach yourself style, strictly following student friendly approach. Sufficient theory content and numerous examples covering all typical points are given. Illustrations given in the book include the questions set in the University examinations. Topics are arranged exactly according to new syllabus.
We have pleasure to mention that this book would never have been written, without the support and encouragement of family members. Many thanks to them. Special thanks are also due to colleagues in College. Who provided inclusive comments and useful feedback.
