I ordered this book for my class in the US and I received an international copy. Initially, I was upset until I realized that this book is literally the exact same--only paper back and much cheaper.
This book is usually required. As far as texts go, it's not bad. However, it's about 25 lbs. There is a version that is made to go in a 3 ring binder I would reccomend, cause you can just sling the chapters you need over you shoulder and leave the other 15 pounds at home.Also, I had to buy an online thing to go with this that the new version comes with. It was $80, so factor that into your costs if your instructor will make you use Wiley Plus.
This item listed the Connect Access as part of the features of this item on , no such luck, don't by this item if you need the Connect Access Code, cause it is not included!!!!!!!!
i cannot recommend getting the kindle version of this book. Renting it for the semester set me back about $90. Books like this open like a PDF which makes it awkward to read for an extended period. Also, it can only be opened on the Kindle. Opening the book with your Kindle browser extension is not allowed for some reason. The second reason I don't like it is it doesn't come with access to Connect. If you've never heard of it it's website where your assignments and tests are. New books come with a code otherwise you can buy a code online. Not having access to Connect was not a surprise but the price to buy it was. Basic access was about $90. If you want access to the eBook too the total comes to $150. I would have been no better for buying an actual book which came with the Connect code.
This IS an International version, its nothing like the book you need. I feel like this is very misleading. The picture they have shown is the book you probably need. The book you receive is nothing like the one pictured. I called the publisher and they said that the US and the international are NOT the same. (different regulations). I returned my book, and both times I emailed the seller, I got some generic email that included an article about how its legal to sell international books, and they also told me i put in the wrong ISBN number. I just wanted to return my book, not accuse anyone of anything, but now I think they are misleading on purpose.
Wow, what a phenomenal book. I like to read this before I go to sleep at night. It calms me down and I will read about different cost allocations as though I'm counting sheep. It's so soothing to see numbers all over the page. I don't know what I would do without this book. I would recommend everyone to buy a second copy to place under a firm pillow. I hear that some people can absorb material directly through this process. I never knew I lacked so much knowledge in cost accounting. I would have tried to apply my indirect overhead costs to the wrong activities had I not read this book.
This book makes accounting quite easy to understand. The problems are broken up into confusing categories for each chapter (Summary exercises, brief exercises labeled BE, Exercises, Problem Set A, Problem Set B, etc) but the problems are quite helpful while not requiring too much unnecessary writing. I would highly recommend this book, especially for college courses.
This text leaves much to be desired. Too much focus on intellectual vocabulary (I had to break out the dictionary every time I opened the cover), and far too often they don't give enough information in the working problems (If you expect me to figure cost per equivalent unit, don't make me guess what the degree of completion in the WIP account is, Mr. Hemingway). The student will more clearly perceive the concepts of cost accounting if you present the concepts in as simple form as possible.Remember the basics of teaching...K.I.S.S.The solutions manual is a waste of money also. Information given in the working problems (data used to work the problems) are often not enough to actually solve the problem (the missing information would magically appear in the solution), or the given data doesn't match the data in the solution. For example, given is a debit to direct materials, but the solution involves a credit of the same amount to direct materials. Again...Often...
