Raiborn arms accountants with the resources they need to understand key financial and managerial accounting concepts. Visual Recaps are provided to illustrate significant topics in a pictorial manner or summarized in a table. Each chapter contains a summary, key terms list, and a variety of questions, exercises, problems, and short cases. Accounting Information for Decision Making sections are designed to emphasize a user perspective of accounting information. Accountants will also find discussions of international financial reporting standards (IFRSs) to gain a global perspective.
It can get a little confusing, this accounting stuff, but this book uses a lot of examples and has a lot of practice at the end of each chapter.
On time and exactly what I needed. It was in great shape. I will be able to sale this product with how nice it is.
Worst book possible. Half of the question in the book do not even focus on the chapter. It covers things that should have in one chapter, (talks about something in one chapter then the question is in another and not even spoken about in that chapter. It is way to over priced I bought this book for $70 and I'll get about $25 back according to Amazon. If your class requires this book, take the same class where this book isn't required.
I used this textbook in my first accounting class. The book was easy to read and the problems at the end of the chapter were not too difficult but helped me understand the material better. There were a number of errors in the text and problems but most of them were obvious and easy to see. It would have been nice for the editor to catch these before printing.
You can judge a book by it's cover. This book is too short, the topics are over simplified,and you can't do the homework w/o serious help from someone that already knows accounting. In no way does it teach you anything. The homework at the end of the chapter is difficult. You can't go back to the text to do the homework. If you don't have a good teacher, you are up a creek without a paddle. It's a cheap book brought to you by the publishers that are responsible for some of the Idiot books. It does not belong in a graduate level program.
