This book was first published in 1972 as the second of two volumes, entitled Accounting & Financial Management in the Hotel and Catering Industry Vol.I (accounting) and Vol.II (financial management). Vol.I was revised three times, to 1987 and Vol.II revised four times, to 1992. During their period in publication the structure and content of the volumes underwent a transformation in line with the evolving role of professional hospitality managers and developments in the wider field of accounting; resulting in the volumes being developed latterly as independent titles. With the evolution of management accounting and the growing emphasis on managers understanding the financial implications of planning and business decisions Vol.II was revised and retitled Managerial Accounting in the Hospitality Industry, 5 th edition, 1992. Throughout the period of the Harris and Hazzard editions we researched, developed and applied emerging, state-of-the-art, generic accounting methods in order to give greater financial insights into hospitality products and services and improve the effectiveness of managers’ decision-making. Peter Hazzard’s contribution to this process was invaluable, enabling the adaptation and transfer of accounting techniques, traditionally used in production and manufacturing industry, to hospitality sectors of the service industry. Now, alongside hospitality, the growth in tourism and recent emergence of the events sector makes it timely and relevant to encompass these additional, complementary, service sectors in a single integrated managerial accounting text. Who better to achieve such an undertaking, and take the work forward to a new generation of students and managers, than the three authors of this new landmark edition! Tracy Jones, Helen Atkinson, and Angela Lorenz are three talented academics whose backgrounds combine professional accounting, service-sector management practice and extensive research and teaching experience. Their knowledge and understanding of hospitality, tourism and events management shines through the explanations, examples, and illustrations presented in the text. I congratulate their results and commend this title - foreword. 1. A Strategic Managerial Accounting Perspective to Hospitality, Tourism and Events Operations -- 2.
