  This is a revision of the text, previously entitled Maths and Statistics for Accounting and Business Studies 2nd edition. This new edition will continue to prepare students for professional accountancy examinations and should be useful for accounting and business studies undergraduates taking courses or modules in quantitative methods. As in the previous editions, students should benefit from end-of-chapter questions, with solutions at the end of the text. Most exercises are taken from ACCA/CIMA exam papers and they have been updated, along with the examples, to take account of changes in syllabus requirements since the 2nd edition. Other changes in the edition include new chapters on linear programming, network analysis and stock control, to reflect alterations in course content. There is also expanded coverage of internal rate of return, and increased reference to software packages such as Minitab, Lotus 1-2-3 and OSB+.
