I've studied cost accounting for 2 years in Hong Kong. The first year I used a really bad text book named 'Costing', I hated studying Costing. However after using the 'Cost Accounting: A Managerial Emphasis (10 Edition)', I become interested in Costing and Management Accounting. And deceide to have CMA exam in future. THIS BOOK IS REALLY GOOD ONE.

If you are looking for a single volume "bible" on cost accounting, this is likely the best book in print today to fit that bill. It is comprehensive in scope yet has many strengths to ease comprehension and aid readability.The topics are grouped in six main sections each with several chapters on that topic. Since it is unlikely that you will read this reference / text book left to right as you would a novel this organization helps in finding what you are looking for and focusing on the area(s) of interest.There are many helpful illustrations and a good use of color as well as chapter summaries and all the exercises you could ever hope for.A very excellent feature is the use of application problems that take you step-by-step through building an Excel spreadsheet. This is tremendously useful.The web support is also a good help as well as the streaming video vignettes.I honestly find this topic very interesting and the 11th edition of this book to be a very valuable resource.
