Don't waste your money on this useless paperweight. I had to buy it for a college class, so I had no choice. The treatment of accounting is too superficial. It claims to give the reader a good grasp on balance sheets and income statements, but fails to adequately define or explain many of the terms used on actual corporate statements. The chapters on costing, and budgeting introduce some theory, but by the time you are finished, you still have no idea how to actually construct a budget. The financial chapters are superficial, and at the same time use statistical concepts that are not explained, leaving the unprepared student rubbing his or her head and wondering what the hell the discussion was about. On that note, the entire book suffers from the useage of terms and concepts that are either poorly explained or not explained at all. The book covers a good spectrum of financial subjects, but all are covered too poorly to be of any use to a real-world manager. The actual useful information in the book could probably be condensed to 10 pages. The rest is useless fluff that talks ABOUT the subjects without telling the student how to actually accomplish something. In short, the book gives little practical training and is heavy on theory, but the theory is superficial and incomplete, so the book is just about useless. I bought an inexpensive book on accounting and another on budgeting (about 150 pages each) that answered my questions and taught me the basics of how to accomplish those functions. I won't say which ones, as I don't want to be accused of representing those authors or publishers, but just know that almost any financial books you buy will be better than this one.
This book doesn't explain things clearly. If you don't already know the subject, then it doesn't help much at all. I think that when you're looking to learn a subject that it's up to the writer to explain like you "don't" know. it doesn't! i just follow along with my instructor's in-class lecture to get information.
The book is in great shape like new, fast shipping I would buy from this seller again.Thank YouVivian
