TCTC Instructor co-authors Accounting Textbook

Tri-County Technical College accounting instructor Brenda Mattison can add textbook author to her list of accomplishments.  Mattison is the co-author of Horngren’s Accounting, 10th edition, a two-semester accounting textbook published by Pearson Education.  Her co-authors are accounting professors Tracie Nobles at Texas State University San Marcos and Ella Mae Matsumura at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Mattison also wrote and revised chapters in Horngren’s Financial and Managerial Accounting, fourth edition, which offers a corporate approach with an equal emphasis on financial and managerial accounting.  Tri-County uses this version, with financial accounting taught in ACC 101 and managerial accounting taught in ACC 102. “We are thrilled to welcome Brenda Mattison to the Pearson team and Horngren franchise,” said Lacey Vitetta, accounting editor at Pearson Education.  “Brenda’s vast contributions have helped to redefine the tradition of learning accounting by creating learning materials that bridge the gap between textbook content and classroom instruction techniques.  Her deep connections to the academic accounting community, respect for fellow educators and true understanding of her students are evident on every page.”
