Study Guide to accompany Financial Accounting

I think the study guide is more useful than the book. I find the book to be very dry and impossible to get through. The study guide in contrast narrows the focus and dispenses with the boring example sin the book. I only need the book for the quizzes in our class. I do all of the exercises in the study guide and have an A in the class.

Gets to the point

When I first took Financial Accounting, I was using Prentice Hall's Accounting textbook by Hongren. My prof was real anal-retentive and required us to read every chapter. To ensure this, he would quiz us on the contents of each chapter before we covered it in class. I spent so much time trying to wade through the excessive verbage in that book that I ended up not having any time left to do actual problems or sharpen up my practical skills. As a result, I ended up with a D in the class although I understood most of the concepts very well. When I took the course again over the summer, I had a different professor and he used this book. What a breath of fresh air! Meigs and company explain the accounting concepts just as thoroughly as Hongren but with about half the verbage. I breezed through my summer course and got the highest grade in the class. This book is an excellent teaching tool for beginners and would also make a great reference guide for more advanced students.

CLEAR, EASY, STRAIGHTFORWARD

This college accounting book is SO UNDERSTANDABLE--it uses PLAIN ENGLISH, doesn't give you a lot of hard to understand theoretical concepts like other accounting books. it gives you what you need to know in order to study accounting and in a format that you can understand. you can read thru 1 chapter easily since it only gives you what you NEED to know. it first gives objective questions in the front of the chapter and then summarizes the definitions for important words, phrases, and terminology at the end of each chapter. it's very practical in introducing you to real life accounting.SORRY--THIS REVIEW REFERS TO THE TEXT BOOK, NOT THE STUDY GUIDE.

Excellent book for students as well as professionals.

I am a student of professional Accountancy. I found this book very clear, it conveys the material to the reader very well. It has every thing availble for the student to understand the topics with illustrations. I don't find simmilar book like this one. By reading this book, I am able to get exemption in this subject by securing grade 'A+'. Thanks to the Authors.

It is very reader friendly, and explains all topics clealr

The book is very clear and converys the material to the reader very well. The book actually makes sure it has every thing availble for the student to understand the topic, and then some (giving websites, study guide, study questions, etc.) There are not too many books out there like that. The combination of reading this book, and going to class regurally should result in an A for anystudent.
