The authors bring their collective teaching wisdom to bear in this book not by changing "the message"(financial accounting content), but by changing "the messenger" (the way the content is presented). The approach centers around utilizing the Socratic method, or simply put, asking and answering questions. The reason that this approach continues to be glorified after thousands of years is simple - it engages students and stresses understanding over memorization. So this text covers standard topics in a standard sequence, but does so through asking a carefully constructed series of questions along with their individual answers.

Long Description: Financial Strategy for Public Managers is a new generation textbook for financial management in the public sector. It offers a thorough, applied, and concise introduction to the essential financial concepts and analytical tools that today’s effective public servants need to know. It starts “at the beginning” and assumes no prior knowledge or experience in financial management. Throughout the text, Kioko and Marlowe emphasize how financial information can and should inform every aspect of public sector strategy, from routine procurement decisions to budget preparation to program design to major new policy initiatives. They draw upon dozens of real-world examples, cases, and applied problems to bring that relationship between information and strategy to life. Unlike other public financial management texts, the authors also integrate foundational principles across the government, non-profit, and “hybrid/for-benefit” sectors. Coverage includes basic principles of accounting and financial reporting, preparing and analyzing financial statements, cost analysis, and the process and politics of budget preparation. The text also includes several large case studies appropriate for class discussion and/or graded assignments.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"A company's economic performance varies over time But a company's executives can use earnings management to reduce the variability of reported earnings - a common measure of economic performance This process, known as “income smoothing,” has been debated by regulators and researchers Some worry that executives may use income smoothing to mask poor economic performance Others argue that income smoothing allows executives to report earnings that better reflect the company’s true ongoing performance A new study examines how income smoothing impacts debt contract design and financial covenant effectiveness to provide evidence on these issues The study finds that debt contracts to borrowers who smooth income are more likely to include an earnings-based debt covenant And income smoothers are less likely to experience a spurious covenant violation, where a debt covenant is violated even though credit risk has not increased These findings suggest that smoothed earnings are more useful in monitor.."
The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.
