Welcome to the Fourth Edition of Intermediate Accounting

This product is the result of extensive market research that included both faculty and students. We created this learning system because, as educators, we didn’t feel that the existing textbooks in the intermediate market recognized how the study habits of today’s students have evolved, nor did we feel that existing textbooks fully embraced the power of technology in the learning process. This product is not so much a textbook as it is an integrated learning system. Although the print textbook can be used on its own, we created extensive digital resources that integrate with and complement the print book.

The emphasis in our approach is to provide students with a demonstration and review problem for each key learning objective. In this way, students see the application of concepts through a step-by-step illustration and then have the opportunity to immediately practice similar review problems electronically in myBusinessCourse (MBC), our online homework platform. In addition, MBC contains hundreds of instructional videos that were created by the authors. There are four general categories of videos: concept overviews, demonstration videos, worked-out review problems, and highlights & tips videos. With nearly 1,000 author-created videos, our text has broad appeal among the YouTube/TikTok generation as confirmed by our adopter feedback. The combination of textbook, videos, and online practice comprise an active learning system that recognizes and embraces how today’s students prefer to learn and provides students with the tools to master intermediate accounting.

Our approach steers away from dense text (which the average student is not reading) and moves to an active-learning approach where content is delivered in short bursts followed by immediate practice. Because each learning objective for every chapter is self-contained, faculty have the flexibility to pick and choose learning outcomes.

We note the need in the market for a direct incorporation of authoritative guidance. Although other intermediate accounting textbooks include some references to the FASB’s standards in a footnote to a chapter, direct citations are rarely included. In our approach, we provide succinct yet thorough, to-the-point explanations along with direct citations of the most relevant references from the Codification. Direct citations best prepare the intermediate accounting student, who will often reference and cite the authoritative standards in practice. This novel approach of combining active-learning with real-life authoritative guidance best prepares intermediate accounting students for life in practice.

Target Audience

As the title suggests, Intermediate Accounting is intended for use following the introductory financial accounting course at either the undergraduate or graduate level. This book supports an intermediate accounting series offered to accounting and finance majors, typically in a two-course sequence (three-course series in some cases). The topics in intermediate accounting are relevant to approximately 70% of the Financial Accounting Reporting (FAR) section of the current Uniform CPA Examination. In response to the recently updated CPA exam, we have provided the resources needed to prepare your students. We have mapped the learning objectives from each chapter to the learning objectives in the CPA Exam Blueprints. With this update, faculty and students will better understand how the topics in each chapter match up with the CPA exam learning objectives in the Financial Analysis and Reporting Section (FAR) and the Business Analysis and Reporting Section (BAR). This is useful for assessment purposes and will allow faculty and accounting departments the flexibility to separate FAR from BAR topics in the intermediate courses. Being current is important to our author team as we continually monitor updates to the CPA exam to provide the most up-to-date materials.

How Today's Accounting Students Learn

As we developed the concept for this Intermediate Accounting learning system, we conducted extensive research with accounting students and faculty to understand the changing learning and study behavior of accounting students. The findings of that research led to the development of the first three editions. We have continued to conduct research that focuses on how accounting students learn and how faculty teaching has evolved in the post-pandemic educational environment. In preparation for the 4th edition, we conducted 4 surveys of accounting students with over 5,000 student participants.

Findings of this research indicate that the vast majority of accounting students prefer:

  • Attempting homework assignments before reading the textbook or using other course resources
  • Watching videos that explain the accounting rather than reading the textbook
  • Digestible chunks of information as opposed to lengthy multi-topic explanations
  • Online learning system that they can access 24/7 from any type of device

Students Value myBusinessCourse



We used these findings and others to create an intermediate accounting product that complements and facilitates how today’s students learn.


Author Amie Dragoo discusses some of the text's features below:

The active-learning approach:


The text is supported with over 800 author prepared videos!  


We include the accounting equation and T-accounts to help student understand the impact of the transactions and avoid rote memorization of Journal Entries.



We incorporate Data Analytics in response to the AACSB curriculum outline, the AICPA/NASBA evolution model curriculum, and the demands of employers.



We engage students through real examples that include topics of interest to them, including Environmental, Social, and Governance.



We provide direct citations of the most relevant references from the Codification. This best prepares the typical intermediate accounting student who will often reference and cite the authoritative standards in practice.



Often students don't appreciate the judgments made in accounting, so we include Management & Judgment discussions and assignments in each chapter.



We have partnered with Gleim CPA Prep to provide your students with a head start on their journey to the profession.

Action Plan

To establish our active-learning approach and highlight its user friendly organization, each chapter opens with an Action Plan that identifies each learning objective for the chapter, the related page numbers, the demonstrations, the review applications, the assignments, and the learning objectives tied to the CPA Exam Blueprints. This table allows students and faculty to quickly grasp the chapter contents and to efficiently navigate to the desired topic.



Overview, Demo, and Review

We have adopted a straightforward, effective layout throughout every chapter of the book. We have included carefully crafted learning objectives that are not extraneous or all-encompassing. Each key learning objective is clearly identified with a distinct orange and blue banner and is followed by its own overview, demo, and review.



In fact, each learning objective represents a separate learning module, allowing students and faculty to break down complex topics into manageable subtopics. Our text is comprised of approximately 200 learning objectives and unlike other textbooks in the market, each learning objective is structured in the same way with a consistent layout and resources (in type and quality) associated with each learning objective. Students appreciate this style of learning uniquely adopted in Intermediate Accounting because of the current trend in learning preferences. Students prefer to learn by doing with convenient access to explanations and authoritative references for help in the process. For additional support, students have access to short videos for each Overview, Demo, and Review. The videos can be accessed in MBC.

To help students, we employ a 3-step process for each learning objective.


Market research indicates that students benefit from this consistent pedagogical approach to learning.



Following each learning objective is a brief explanation of the topic with visual references (diagrams) when helpful. We also include an overview box for each learning objective to provide students with a quick overview of key topics. For topics where relevant authoritative guidance is important, we included an excerpt from the Codification. This presentation of the accounting guidance minimizes authors’ biases and places both students and faculty in a unique authoritative position. Our approach incorporates ASC Glossary definitions whenever possible and terminology that is common in the Codification such as the terms recognition, measurement, derecognition, and disclosure. References to authoritative guidance are distinctly highlighted with black block text as shown below. While we take the text exactly as it is from the standard, we sometimes include only the main part of the standard and do not include more detailed portions in the interest of parsimony. Also, we include the most recently approved Codification references, even if the effective date is in the future.



The presentation of the Codification within the text makes our text unique within the marketplace. This aspect of the text is also relevant to students who are now expected to analyze sections of the Codification on the CPA exam so exposure to the Codification is critical to student success.



presentation focused on demos inspires the contemporary college learner. Demos are included for each learning objective to illustrate the accounting concept discussed. We include color-coded solutions within the Demo (the blue text) because this is the students first exposure to the relevant topic. In older intermediate textbooks, it is common for an accounting concept or a variation to an accounting method to be explained in a page or more of text instead of through an illustration. In our approach, accounting concepts are predominantly demonstrated. The active learner can reconstruct the steps independently. In addition, each demo is accompanied by a short video clip (typically 3 minutes or less) that walks students through the solution to the demo.




At the conclusion of each learning objective, a review problem is provided with answers included at the end of the chapter. These review problems are presented to reinforce concepts presented in the section and to ensure student comprehension. By not providing the review solutions on the same page as the review, we are encouraging students to ‘learn by doing.’ The demo, along with the overview material, provides the foundation for students to complete the review problems. Students have the opportunity to practice the same problem online in myBusinessCourse. We believe that many students will take advantage of the opportunity to work through the problem online because they will gain instant feedback as to whether they completed the solution accurately—and frankly, a digital environment is more in line with how we all function every day. Further, each review is accompanied by a short video clip (typically 3 minutes or less) that walks students through the solution to the review. All reviews are included in MBC with algorithmic options, which means they can be assigned and auto-graded.


Integrated Videos in MBC   Author-created videos are an integral part of our learning system. Time and again, our market research on student preferences and study habits indicates todays students like and rely heavily on video instruction as they learn and apply accounting concepts to homework assignments and projects. Our videos are available through MBC and can be accessed 24/7 by students. To facilitate students’ use of the instructional videos while doing their homework, we identify the appropriate video in the margin next to many assignments.


Accounting Equation and T-Accounts

We have received overwhelmingly positive feedback on the inclusion of the accounting equation and use of T-accounts. Faculty recognize the value of these tools in explaining the impact transactions have on accounts and financial statements. Students typically encounter the accounting equation and T-accounts in their introductory financial accounting course, and they appreciate the continuity between courses that these tools create. An additional benefit of using the accounting equation is that Finance majors, who are more focused on the impact of transactions than the recording of them, leave the course with a better understanding of the affect transactions have on financial statements.

In the 4th edition, we expand our use of the accounting equation and T-accounts. In the margin adjacent to the journal entries, we show the impact of the accounting equation and T-accounts to aid in student comprehension.



Abbreviated Account Names and Cash Flow Identifier

New to this edition, abbreviated accounts names have been added to the accounting equation to increase usefulness to students. When a transaction affects cash, we also use notation to indicate if it is an operating cash flow (C:o), or an investing cash flow (C:i) or a financing cash flow (C:f).



New Assignments Requiring Use of the Accounting Equation

To complement the accounting equations shown in the text, a number of assignments are now offered in the accounting equation format in addition to the journal entry format. Faculty will have the flexibility to assign the traditional journal entry approach and/or the accounting equation approach for this set of problems. These questions will be well received by finance majors interested in the financial statement impact of transactions


Excel Skills & Integrated Excel

Proficiency with Excel continues to be one of the most sought-after skills among employers. To facilitate Excel skill development, MBC now includes short videos that show students how to use various features and functions in Excel. The videos can be accessed within myBusinessCourse as part of your MBC course.

In addition, Cambridge Business Publishers has a new relationship with Microsoft that allows for a seamless integration of Excel within myBusinessCourse. Faculty can assign homework through MBC that requires students to use Excel. These assignments are auto-graded and scores are captured in the MBC gradebook.


Learning in Context

Real World

Students appreciate and become more engaged when they see the real-world relevance of the content they are learning in class. We include current, real-world examples of financial reporting throughout each chapter in Real World boxes.


Sustainability Reporting

Companies continue to expand disclosures on different aspects of sustainability. In the fourth edition, we have expanded our Real World coverage of recent 10-K disclosures with sustainability considerations and added other sustainability content where appropriate to describe current financial statement reporting requirements (primarily SEC guidance). Also new to this edition, we have added assignments requiring students to review and analyze recent sustainability disclosures. These new assignments are available in MBC.




Management Judgement

In each chapter, we emphasize how management judgment is required to apply the authoritative guidance. We feel it is important for students to understand that applying accounting rules is often subjective and requires professional judgment.


Expanding Your Knowledge

Expanding Your Knowledge sections extend the coverage of a learning objective to novel situations that are illustrated with excerpts and examples from practice. These topics can enhance classroom discussions or simply allow the curious student to go beyond the usual coverage. A representative sample follows.


Chapter Assessment

The challenge in intermediate accounting is applying the concepts to different scenarios. Our assignment material consists of a wide variety of formats, varying levels of complexity, a thorough coverage of learning objectives, and selections with real world data. The materials increase in complexity as you move through the different categories: Questions, Multiple-Choice, Brief Exercises, Exercises, and Problems. The questions in each end of chapter section are numbered sequentially from start to finish to avoid confusion for students. All learning objectives are represented in the end of chapter materials.

Each chapter contains Questions, Multiple-Choice, Brief Exercises, Exercises, and Problems. The Multiple-Choice section is new to this edition. At least one question is provided for each learning objective of the text. The computational questions are included in MBC with algorithmic options.


We prepared a grid plotting each chapter’s content across the best competing texts in the marketplace, arranged by learning objective, to ensure that our coverage exceeds the competition. Importantly, our assignments correspond with the listed learning objective to ensure that students have the necessary foundational material to complete the corresponding problems. The last section (Accounting Decisions and Judgments) includes more application-type problems, which are identified as follows.


New to this edition, Integrated Excel questions have been added to MBC which allows for the auto-grading of student Excel formulas.






Data Analytics and Data Visualizations

The world in which we live has changed dramatically in recent years. Technology is rapidly altering how accounting is performed and what can be done with the data once they are collected. In this edition, we have incorporated data analytic and data visualization assignments tailored to each chapter’s content. An Excel solution is provided for instructors and all assignments have been added to MBC for an auto-grading option. Additional assignments are available in Appendix A which also provides an overview of the topic of data analytics.




Chapter Organization—Updated This Edition

Chapters in this text are organized into two parts.

Part 1: Chapters 1 through 6 offer a review of introductory financial reporting. We begin with the accounting environment and the underlying conceptual framework. We review the accounting double-entry system, including the preparation and presentation of the four financial statements: income statement (including comprehensive income), balance sheet, statement of equity, and statement of cash flows. We also introduce the DuPont framework, which is useful for analysis and interpretation of accounting reports. The first part of the book concludes with a review of time value of money.

Part 2: The second part launches with the chapter on revenue recognition. This chapter is helpful to understanding the remaining chapters, including when revenue (and assets) are recognized, and when expenses (and liabilities) are recognized. Chapters 8 through 23 loosely follow the accounting equation. Specifically, we begin with the chapters covering assets—Chapters 8 through 14, followed by chapters generally covering liabilities or equity (with some asset implications)—Chapters 15 through 20. The last part of part 2 includes a new chapter to the fourth edition, Chapter 21 on Accounting Changes and Error Analysis. Previously offered as an Appendix, we now offer this content in a dedicated chapter with supporting resources. Next, Chapter 23 revisits the statement of cash flows (from Chapter 5), addressing the cash flows related to some special topics introduced in part 2. New to this edition, we moved the content on Pensions and Postretirement Benefits to the final chapter (Chapter 23) in recognition of its elimination from topical coverage on the CPA exam. Finally, Appendix A introduces Data Analytics and Appendix B (Online) describes key areas of differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS.


Book-Wide Changes to This Edition

In addition to the chapter-specific changes listed below, we have made several enhancements that affect the entire book.

General Updates to the Text

  • Chapter organization was revised to now include a new chapter (Chapter 21) on Accounting Changes and Error Analysis and the chapter on pensions and postretirement benefits was moved to the end of the book (Chapter 23) to recognize its elimination on the CPA exam.

  • The CPA column of the Action Plan was updated to now reference sections of the CPA Exam Blueprints (2025) which can help instructors with curriculum assessment.
  • The balance sheet equation (BSE) included in the text margin next to each journal entry now includes abbreviated account name. One key benefit of incorporating the BSE with account names is that students can readily see the impact of each transaction on the financial statements.
  • New real world sustainability reporting examples were added throughout the text.
  • We have updated disclosures for real companies on the chapter opening pages, Real World boxes, and Management Judgment sections.

General Updates to End-of-Chapter Assignments and MBC

Guide to Intermediate Accounting Research

The Guide to Intermediate Accounting Research, Third Edition, by Shelby Collins, is intended to serve as a supplement to the materials used in an intermediate accounting course. It includes many opportunities to apply Codification guidance to related accounting topics (including, for example, leases, investment accounting, revenue recognition, and consolidation). Students will learn to confidently address and communicate accounting research issues, from start to finish. Students will not only take away the ability to identify the accounting problem (the “researchable question”) but will gain experience locating and applying guidance within the FASB Codification.
