About Financial Management For Public, Health, And
Product Description Now in its Fifth Edition, Financial Management for Public, Health, and Not-for-Profit Organizations is the leading textbook on financial management in the government, health, and not-for-profit sectors providing a comprehensive yet practical introduction to the financial decision-making and management skills required of students and practitioners in the field. Assuming readers have no prior training in financial management, authors Steven A. Finkler, Daniel L. Smith, Thad D. Calabrese, and Robert M. Purtell artfully combine the principles and theory and analytics of accounting and finance. Coverage includes cost analysis, budget preparation, budget and variance analysis, management control, and recording and reporting financial information, with an emphasis on preparing and analyzing financial statements. The authors detail the foundational principles of each of the methods introduced in the book, and through step-by-step equations, figures, and exhibits, they illustrate how to execute financial management in practice. Review "The Finkler et al. book is so well balanced, it provides fundamentals on accounting and short-and long-term financial management techniques, as well as advanced-level techniques. The beauty of Financial Management is the way that it provides readers with how-to steps on accounting to interpret financial conditions. It presents advanced topics, but in a user-friendly way, placing the title at the top in the textbook market." -- Jay Ryu "Financial Management for Public, Health, and Not-for-Profit Organizations helps to enhance financial decision-making skills through the application of analytical concepts and decision-making techniques to a variety of financial situations. Its presentation and readability are right for my students." -- Chester Robinson "Finkler et al.’s Financial Management continues to be my book of choice. Its discussions of financial statements, regulatory reporting, and related case studies are terrific! The case studies and exercises at the end of each chapter are great ways to engage students. I continue to recommend this text to my colleagues." -- Karen Kunz From the Back Cover Finkler provides a solid foundation in accounting and finance for policy makers and managers of government, health care, and not-for-profit organizations.
