Professor Mary Jane Dugan

I am the Chairperson of the Business and Economics Department and an Associate Professor teaching Accounting at Mansfield University.

Information about textbooks for the courses I offer this fall is listed below.  

 

Fall 2009 semester:

Access to required textbooks from the beginning of the semester is critical for success in your courses.  Students who plan to use internet resources to buy their textbooks should purchase them immediately.  Lead times of 3 weeks or more have been reported by unhappy students looking to save a few dollars.

Fall 2009 Principles of Accounting II:   Syllabus link - ACC 1111  

Both the 'textbook' and MyAccountingLab, a web-based, tutorial and assessment software , is used throughout Principles II.  The 'textbook' is available in hardcopy form [either looseleaf or hardcover], or it is available in electronic form.  The form of textbook is the student's choice.  Several economical choices are listed below.   

The instructor does refer to the textbook frequently in class.  Accordingly, those with the ebook version should plan to bring a computer to class on a regular basis.  All homework is submitted adn graded using MyAccountingLab, no exceptions.

TEXTBOOK:  Accounting, Horngren, Harrison & Oliver 8^th Edition, Prentice Hall including MyAccounting Lab.  

Accounting looseleaf version - must be purchased new.

ISBN-10: 0135082293 | ISBN-13: 9780135082294
This ISBN includes the Looseleaf binder with chapters 1 - 23 and MyAccountingLab.   

                                                                             -OR-

Accounting Hardcover [used copies may be available] and MyAccountingLab purchased separately:

ISBN-10: 0136072976 [hardcover] PLUS
ISBN-10: 0136154786 [MyAccountingLab with ebook]  

double-check any textbook product purchased NEW to be sure MyAccountingLab is bundled with the text.  It is much more cost effective to acquire as a bundle.

An alternate source to purchase resources is directly from the publisher.

Try a podcast!  Wait until you see the Study guides and hear the podcasts of study guides available on MyAccountingLab.  Podcasts are a great tool to help learn material.  Podcasts are on MyAccountingLab and available for download onto your favorite mp3 player!  

Fall 2009 Introduction to Federal Income Tax:  Syllabus link - ACC 3390 Online  

• TEXTBOOK:  South-Western Federal Taxation 2010: Individual Income Taxes, 33rd Edition¹, Hoffman, Smith, Willis  ISBN-10: 0538765100, ©2010, South-Western

  ¹Bundle: Text + TaxCut® Tax Preparation Software CD-ROM + Checkpoint 6-month Printed Access Card for 2010 Tax Titles + Aplia Its Card 1-Semester + Aplia Edition Sticker 

  There are variations as to how this suite of products can be purchased.  I plan to utilize the textbook and the Aplia homework Access Card.  These resources can be purchased as one bundle, as shown here.  Or, the textbook and Aplia Its Card 1-Semester can be acquired separately.  If the textbook and Aplia are purchased separately, there are different ISBN numbers for each.  Below is a link for ISBN numbers. 

   

  If you can find a used copy of the textbook, you are welcome to purchase it.  The ISBN numbers to acquire a stand alone textbook and Aplia Access Card can be found on the website, http://www.cengage.com/cengage/instructor.do?product_isbn=9780324828658&codeid=2A82&disciplinenumber=419&courseid=TX01&sortby=copy&type=all_radio&codeFlag=true&maintab=BetterTogether&subtab=empty

Students planning to meet with faculty for advising often request an appointment.  Email me if you want to set aside a special time when we can meet during those hours.  In your email give me the time and date, and I will email you back a confirmation.  Please give me at least 48 hours to read and respond.  My email address is at the bottom of this web page.

If I am not your advisor, and want to have me advise you, you must contact the department secretary, bnichols@mnsfld.edu and ask her to change you over to me on the advisor sheet.  With the new registration, I can only approve students already listed as my advisees. 

If you are my advisee, see me about internship positions!
