Financial Accounting: Tools for Business Decision-Making,
By
This review is from: Financial Accounting: Tools for Business Decision-Making (Hardcover)
The product is great. I bought this book for an accounting course that I am doing and it is easy to understand.However, there is a wiley plus that comes along with this book, so make sure that you have it once you purchase a new book. I purchased the book through amazon and once I recieved it saw that the wiley plus wasnt included. Amazon was great about it and refunded me the amount once they recieved the book.

This Book is Terrible!,
By Jonathan Todd (Memphis, TN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Financial Accounting: Tools for Business Decision Making, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
This book is terrible! It gives different definitions for the same term several times in the first few chapters. Why doesn't it just give one coherent, comprehensive definition for each word?!! The concepts are broken up and presented helter-skelter, so reading this book is like working a tedious jigsaw puzzle. Then it includes lots of problems at the end of each chapter, but there is no answer key, and the Solutions Manual is only available to teachers. Do they think that my professor is too lazy or too stupid to make up his own tests? (Hint to oblivious writers/editors: a textbook is useless if students cannot practice working problems and check the answers on their own. This is not third grade, and my professor is not a babysitter!) I bought the workbook (which contains practice tests) separately, but I still don't have the answers to the problems at the end of the chapters. I will speak to the department heads at my college and beg them to switch publishers next semester.

Great Book for Beginners,
By A Customer
This review is from: Financial Accounting: Tools for Business Decision Making, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
I used this book for my very first Accounting course and it was great. The author uses up to date info and really caters to a first year student such as myself. I can only hope that all of my Accounting books will be like this one.
