Rating: - COST ACCTG 12TH EDITION
PRODUCT IN EXCELLENT LIKE NEW CONDITION. ARRIVED VERY QUICKLY AND SELLER RESPONDED TIMELY TO MY INQUIRY.
Rating: - Poor Learing Tool for an Online Course
I took this course on line and this is not the textbook to use. I just want to add that I ended up earning an A, I don't want anyone to think that I am blaming the book for a poor grade. A few of the chapters were very poorly written and the subject matter hard to follow.

Rating: - Didn't enjoy this book
I normally don't post reviews but I just finished up using this book for a class and highly dislike it.

My biggest pet peave had to deal with the Economic Ordering Quantity stuff in chapter ... Read More

The writers of this book present a lot of material; however, they do so in a manner that may cause confusion and a general dislike of the material. Presentation is verbose, often using paragraphs to explain concepts that could be stated in one sentence. While some sidebars present necessary information, many of them are simply advertisements for the publisher's study guide.
Rating: - Not impressed
I am not sure whether my negative perception of this book arises more from my disliking the book or the subject matter, but I felt like I had trouble learning from it as well as I have from other textbooks. I generally rely on the text to clarify anything I missed from a professor's lecture, but this one was not that helpful for me. I'm sure this is related to the fact that I am absolutely horrible at accounting, but I was hoping that the textbook could save me and teach me whatever I was missing ... Read More
