Pretty decent Financial Statement book EdwinP I used this book for a Financial Accounting course as part of my MBA. I enjoyed this book. It was well organized, had good examples, it was easy to look up concepts in the index and the chapters made sense in their layout and in the flow.

Most faculty agree that mastery of the accounting cycle is critical to success in financial accounting. When writing this text, they considered career relevance as their guide when selecting material, and the need to engage the student as their guide to style, pedagogy, and design. The authors believe that most faculty take more time with the accounting cycle, but other financial accounting textbooks don't. The companies chosen are engaging and the decision-making focus shows the relevance of financial accounting regardless of whether or not the student has chosen to major in accounting.Libby/Libby/Short believes i
