I am happy with the service and what I expected. I received the book in timely manner and the way I expected it. It's a very good textbook and hard theories and ideas are summarized in a good way and I found it easy to reach what I want to get from this textbook. The authors have kept the text concise by focusing on the key concepts students need to master. It's easy to understand, there are pictures and graphs, and the website for the book is very helpful.

Fundamentals of Cost Accounting: 4 out of 5 stars based on 1 user reviews.

Summary

A direct, realistic, and efficient way to learn cost accounting. Fundamentals is short (approximately 700 pages) making it easy to cover in one semester. The authors have kept the text concise by focusing on the key concepts students need to master. Opening vignettes and In Action boxes show realistic applications of these concepts throughout.

All chapters end with a “Debrief” that links the topics in the chapter to the decision problem faced by the manager in the opening vignette. Comprehensive end-of-chapter problems provide students with all the practice they need to fully learn each concept.
