Average Customer Rating: 3.0 out of 5

1) Far too Simplified   [Rating: 2 out of 5]
SUPER easy book for learning accounting. I enjoyed reading it at home and am going to read it for a third time: cover to cover. Very relaxed subject material. Only an idiot would have problems understanding the material. Should be mandatory 3rd grade class work.

2) This book is insane   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
The book has a big problem in formualing how to go about doing different accounting calcuations. The language is not clear and the diagrams are useless because there is no references as how the calculation came to be. Most of the time it starts on six pages back and if you do not read very carefully, you will miss the whole idea. Had this book for two quarters in college and hated it. All of the students that were in my classes came to the agreement that the authors could not agree and that the exericses were a disaster as well.If you buy this book and totally understand it Kudos.

3) excellent book   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I think it's a great book. I have taken two courses with this book, and though I haven't looked at other intermediate books, I find this well written and easy to follow. I have also taken Advanced Accounting, and I think this book is alot better than my advanced text by Larsen

4) This is one of the worst textbooks of any kind   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
I used the book in my Intermediate Accounting class last semester. This is one of the worst textbooks of any kind I've ever used in my life. The way the authors express their ideas is inaccurate. Some terms mentioned in the book in one place cannot be found in another place in the same book. That means a reader doesn't really know what the book is talking about. The English itself is even no good. I hope this book will be taken out of the academia soon.

5) what a poor accounting textbooks!!!!   [Rating: 1 out of 5]
this textbook is absolutely horrible for students. if i were teacher, i'd never use this book for my students.
