A wealth of online resources

The range of online resources available with Introduction to Financial Accounting and Introduction to Management Accounting are provided through our online resources and Dashboard, OUP’s own learning and assessment tool, or downloaded into your university's local VLE.

Students will have free access to the online resources that include over 1,500 interactive and multiple choice questions, Excel-based exercises, and video content. These are designed to work alongside the textbook to aid revision of key topics or consolidate learning. The 'Go back over this again' features also contain a mix of further examples with the 'Show me how to do it' videos providing practical demonstrations of dealing with more complex accounting tasks.

Lecturer resources include PowerPoint slides, examples and solutions, and hundreds of ready-to-use multiple-choice questions, all arranged by chapter. You can choose to make the online materials available to your students via Dashboard and use the sophisticated analytics to measure student achievement and engagement with the resources, also facilitating discussions and course updates.
