It integrates numerous examples from real corporations throughout the chapters to clearly demonstrate how accounting principles and techniques are applied in practice.

I bought this for book for an accounting course at school. It's PRETTY detailed for the most part, the reading itself was really cut and dry. However, for someone that might not be THAT familiar with accounting, some of the exercises at the end of the chapter are based on assumptions, or, for some, might take some extra legwork outside of the book to come up with an answer. It could probably be written better, if anything. But for the most part, good book for referencing.

Got this book for my intermediate accounting 1 class. VERY hard to follow. Some homework questions are not even discussed within the chapters!

Mix with a professor who doesn't explain things well and you'll struggle a bit. Plan on reading each chapter twice to fully comprehend. ... Read More

My book has never came after I made payment. The seller indicated that the payment was received. However, I waited a month and book has never came.

And, I never see my book. After I check recent reviews of this person on website again and I found there are quite a few persons have the same experience. I want my money back (even though I ...

I'm using this book for my intermediate accounting class this fall. It's straightforward in the overall layout although certain aspects of particular chapters aren't covered until later (example: chapter 3 material requires look-aheads to chapter 8).
I was pleased by the speed of arrival and the price compared to the local campus bookstore.
