Well narrated. Very clear.

Some mistakes weren't edited out. Narrator stumbles a few times. Errors and corrections, along with the phrase "Take two", still present.

Super!!!

The value of this book is that it breaks down accounting fundamentals to the irreducible minimum. Using this book, one can learn the fundamentals well and then everything that builds on that will be a lot easier.

Good

I am using this book to refresh the things I knew. It is a very useful book where accounting concepts are explained with details and real-world illustrations are shown.

A prescribed book

A lot of examples, various detail as well as a large amount of detail, and even illustrated examples. Some non-college textbooks don't have as many balance sheet examples, which are abundant in Accounting Principles-2008. I used this book in college, and I am so sorry that I ever got rid of it. This was a helpful and every explanatory book.
