This is the best book that money can buy. I am a Chartered Management Accountant (CIMA) student. I bought number of books of this subject and they didn't help me in any way. Finally after much thoughts I bought this book and I am glad that I did. I was able to clear my professional exams without any tutor support and above all I was placed in the 70%+ category. All thanks are due to the author who wrote such a book that takes care to explain every bit of management accounting. This book is best for the following chapters: 1. Process Costing - Can be tricky during first read, however the best read!!! 2. Income effects of alternative cost accumulation systems 3. CVP Analysis - Simple and Effective, the problems are great!!! 4. Measuring Relevant Costs 5. ABC 6. Pricing Decision - The final problems are really advanced 7. Decision making under uncertainity - Doesn't cover much material though 8. Capital Decision 1 and 2 9. Standard Costing 1 and 2 - This is my favorite chapter and the author does a great job here. 10. Inventory accounting 11. Linear Programming - The problems are challenging to anyone who didn't take a course in LP. Overall a great book for those who are really interested in learing this subject.

A necessary weapon for magerial fnance personnel

My management accounting lecture did not disclose that cost and management accounting by Drury was the secret of his touth questions in examinations, but when my own research revealed it , the book has since been my main text over the years.You either adopt it or not but you, cannot pause to criticise its contents and the professionalism in methodology. Academicians and professionals swallow its contents.I have adopted it as my main text for the degree mangement accounting and decision making techniques I,m lecturing.
