The text prepares students for success in business by incorporating key components that motivate and guide them through the course. It builds student interest by using recognizable companies like Starbucks and Apple and shows how managers use accounting information to make decisions in these companies. It helps students become better problem-solvers, using a robust end of chapter practice content and uses interactive technology to enhance student learning. Whitecotton/Libby/Phillips Managerial Accounting brings lively and engaging coverage of managerial accounting topics and decision-making focus to the managerial accounting course and pairs perfectly with Phillips/Clor-Proell/Libby/Libby Fundamentals of Financial Accounting, to provide a truly comprehensive solution to your introductory students.

The Strategy and Tactics of Pricing is the most well-established and influential strategic pricing text available, relied on by practitioners and students globally as a core guide for value-based pricing. The book explains how to balance the ability to create and extract value through from markets by managing pricing decisions in a more strategic and profitable manner. Rather than calculating prices to cover costs or to achieve sales goals, readers will learn to frame more strategic choices that proactively influence customer perceptions of value, manage internal costs, and profitably shift demand curves.This edition features new discussions on harnessing concepts from behavioral economics as well as a refined "value cascade" to help organize the topics covered in this book. Readers will also benefit from:1.Major revisions to more than a third of the chapters, including an expanded discussion of the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning analytics tools to assist in the e

Straightforward and easy to read, Zill's A FIRST COURSE IN DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH MODELING APPLICATIONS, 12th EDITION, gives you a thorough overview of the topics typically taught in a first course in differential equations. Your study of differential equations and its applications is supported by a bounty of pedagogical aids, including an abundance of examples, explanations, "Remarks" boxes, definitions and more.

Semiconductors are the foundation of the electronics industry, and are therefore embedded in virtually all modern technology. No engineer or materials scientist can be without an understanding of this essential field. Since semiconductors are also the foundation of solar cells, they play an increasingly critical role in the transition to sustainable technology and promise, as a result, to become even more central in global technological progress.Fundamentals of Semiconductor Materials and Devices is a textbook that presents the advanced principles underlying semiconductors in an accessible and comprehensive way. Combining material from both engineering and physics, it remains grounded throughout in practical applications of semiconductors. Its approach makes it ideal for readers looking to gain a thorough understanding of this ubiquitous technology.Fundamentals of Semiconductor Materials and Devices readers will also find:Questions and exercises to stimulate learning and increase compr

Jackson's posthumously published textbook, A Course on Quantum Mechanics, covers quantum mechanics at an advanced level, presenting fundamental principles and techniques including the Schrödinger and Heisenberg representations, angular momentum, perturbation theory, scattering, quantum theory of radiation, and relativistic quantum mechanics. Particular attention is devoted to the WKB and eikonal approximations, which can be applied to a broad range of physical circumstances. An especially thorough treatment is given to atomic physics. The principles of quantum mechanics are illustrated in applications to atomic, nuclear, particle, and condensed matter physics, demonstrating that quantum mechanics provides a quantitative understanding of matter and light.The book is drawn directly from Jackson’s detailed lecture notes and problem sets. It is edited by colleague and former student Robert N. Cahn, who has taken care to preserve Jackson’s unique style. The textbook is notable for its origi

Talk Like a Pro: Making a Winning Presentation is designed to supplement any textbook on Business Communication. This material set can also be a textbook for a one-or-two-unit standalone presentation course. The Guidebook, together with abundant end-of-chapter exercises and activities, aims to help learners in Asia or countries where English is a second or foreign language prepare them for a professional presentation. It is equally valuable for working professionals who need practical advice on preparing for business presentations.In designing this material set, the author meticulously decomposes award-winning presentation videos into ten-chapter learning units. The author firmly believes that learning can be maximized and be most effective when the learning can be achieved by observing and imitating good examples and when the learning tasks and materials are customized to meet learners’ specific needs and backgrounds. Through the observational learning approach, students and professio

為【劍橋英語教學大師口袋書系列】書籍，內容針對語言學習及多元科技工具的應用提出教學實務上的建議，可做為教師參考用書。In this accessible book, Nicky Hockly draws on her extensive personal experience, along with relevant research and theory, to provide practical guidance on the effective implementation of learning technologies in language teaching. The book explores key issues including the implication of these technologies on pedagogy, the use of technology in different teaching and learning scenarios, digital evaluation and assessment, and how teachers can use technology for their own professional learning.

101 EFL Activities for Teaching University Students is filled with a variety of language learning activities that can be used throughout the semester. While designed with university teachers in mind, teachers of other subjects (and levels) will also find these activities useful in their classrooms.The activities in this book relate to three major themes: the context of the university environment (students learn by talking about their lives as university students), group dynamics – the stages of a group (the stages all students go through during a semester), and active learning (learning through actively using the course material, instead of listening to a professor deliver a lecture).The book is structured around the three main time periods of the semester: the beginning, the mid-period and the end. Activities in the first chapter are ideal for the first few weeks of class. The aims of these activities include learning names, learning about the teacher, learning about other students, a

*Extensive applications of linear algebra concepts to a variety of real-world situations are provided. Students learn how theories and concepts of linear algebra can help solve modern-day problems.*Abundant computer exercises—more extensive than any other linear algebra book available—help students visualize and discover linear algebra, and allow them to explore more realistic applications that are too computationally intensive to work out by hand. These exercises also give students experience in performing matrix computations.*Worked-out examples illustrate new concepts, making the material less abstract and helping students quickly build their understanding.*Two chapter tests for every chapter help students study for exams and get the practice they need to master the material.*A comprehensive MATLAB® appendix gives users all the information they need to use the latest version of MATLAB.

This beloved and market-leading Operations Management book has been completely updated in the 14th edition and provides a clear presentation of the field of Operations Management with current real-world examples and thoughtful student pedagogy. The comprehensive breadth of content is presented in more modular flexible chapters, so it may be used for different course levels ranging from undergrad to executive education. That flexibility allows for the choice of more or less quantitative material and flexibility in order of presentation since chapters do not depend on sequence.The topics covered include both strategic issues and practical applications. Among the topics are forecasting, product and service design, capacity planning, management of quality and quality control, inventory management, scheduling, supply chain management, and project management. The use of an adaptive online learning enhances the student experience and success.
