This book is not a slimmed-down Accounting for Lawyers casebook, but a book especially designed as an auxiliary book for other courses that draw on accounting. It is brief, inexpensive, and gives students a plain English, sometimes even humorous, introduction to the basics of accounting and to the financial concepts of present value and expected value.
This innovative book includes cases, problems, note materials and questions, as well as excerpts from law review articles and other secondary sources that explain the fit among the contemporary sources of Commercial Contracting Law.
This book is the first among legal textbooks to examine a crucial component of real property practice: commercial lease law. Commercial leasing is the lifeblood of commercial real property development in the United States.
Like prior editions, the third edition of Commercial Transactions: Secured Financing attempts to develop the chief skills of the transactional attorney—risk identification and avoidance—as it teaches asset-based financing transactions and the law regulating such transactions, both personal property and real estate, state and federal, statutory and case law.
This new edition of the Document Supplement (which can be used with any contracts book) contains Articles 1 and 2 of the UCC, selected provisions (with Official Comments) of the Restatement (Second) of Contracts, and the CISG.
For the first time, readers will find here in one place a clear and up-to-date discussion of the four primary "security devices" in Louisiana law: the Louisiana version of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, mortgages, statutory liens ("privileges"), and personal guarantees ("suretyship").
Mastering Negotiable Instruments (UCC Articles 3 and 4) and Other Payment Systems explains the essential concepts in the law governing payment systems.
