Accounting Information Systems 8th Edition Ideal for understanding the accounting information systems and related technologies you'll use in your business career, Hall's ACCOUNTING INFORMATION SYSTEMS, 8th Edition includes an emphasis on ethics, fraud, and the modern manufacturing environment. The book focuses on the needs and responsibilities of accountants as end users of systems, systems designers, and auditors. This text completely integrates Sarbanes-Oxley as it affects internal controls and other relevant topics. This new edition also includes discussions on the risks and advantages of cloud computing, the differences between the accounting system needs of small and large companies, and a thorough update of PART II: TRANSACTION CYCLES AND BUSINESS PROCESSES.

The book covers the subject matter expected of an AIS text. As a professor, I would have liked to have better instructor resources. There are only solutions manuals, power points (way too detailed, just like all textbook power point presentations are), and test banks. I would prefer something with a good instructor's manual, sample syllabus, etc. The chapters are organized a little weird. It's hard to get a good big-picture without going over things many, many times.
