An inside view into the practice of forensic accounting
 
As  a result of increased litigation and regulatory enforcement, the demand  for forensic accountants has never been higher. This area of specialty  is considered the top niche market in the accounting profession. The new  Forensic Accounting is the first text of its kind to provide a comprehensive view of what forensic accountants actually do and  how they do it.

With  experience as both practitioners and educators, authors Robert Rufus,  Laura Miller, and William Hahn offer a unique perspective that bridges  the gap between theory and practice. They present concepts in the  context of a scientific approach, emphasizing critical thinking,  reasoning, and problem solving–skills that are useful in a wide variety  of academic and professional environments. And because its content is  consistent with the AICPA curriculum for the Certified in Financial  Forensics (CFF) credential, this text gives your students a head start  on the path toward career advancement.

Forensic Accounting facilitates an outstanding teaching and learning experience–for you and your students. It will help you to:
• Introduce the requisite forensic accounting skills: The text identifies a three-layer skill set and provides students  instruction in the key areas of forensic accounting expertise.
• Offer an inside view into forensic accounting practice: Integrated case studies and sample documents give students a glimpse into the actual practice of forensic accounting.
• Highlight the importance of a scientific approach: The  authors explain the benefits of utilizing a scientific approach and  provide opportunities for students to practice its application.
