Book Description Now in its third edition, the primary goal of BookTour remains the same -- to teach students to understand a company's financial statement information. This unique organization introduces students to how a business uses accounting information and then, in the second half, activities of the firm are emphasized. This engages students in the type of financing, investing and operating decisions that a firm has to make. This approach is especially ideal for students who will become users of accounting information because concepts - not procedures - are emphasized. | ||

Worthless Terrible book for instruction. No clear process throughout the text book, and it jumps around from topic to topic. Should be re-written with a clearer message in the beginning and better organized lesson plans. Perhaps this is just accounting though in general. It would benefit the editors/authors to read a "Fundamentals of Managment" book. Perhaps this would help them organize the information better in this book. Good luck to anyone that buys it though... | ||
Book, Financial Acct, Used Disappointed with the comments from the seller, believed to be unused new, actually previously used with writing in it. Will buy new next time from a seller with a proven track record. | ||
Super !! Received in about 14 days from the US to Japan. Had a slight delay in shipping but book came well within time period and in perfect condition. | ||
A starting book If you have been out of accounting for a while or starting from scratch it is a good book to start with. Of course the main focus is of getting an overview for the balanced sheet, income statement and cash flow. For someone who is starting in accounting the section F2 gives an inside for financial interpretation and another good point is a lot of cases and calculation examples are included in this revision. But if you are looking for a more deeper insight than this book will only help you the half way to get their. | ||
Beware If this book is required for your class beware! There are still questions in the self study questions, through out the book that after 6 editions are still are wrong. The book will say one thing in the chapter and then want you to do another in the chapter questions, without the benifit of telling you how or giving an example. I took my course online without the benifit of an instructor to ask questions face to face. This proved to be difficult. I am sure if you have a GOOD understanding of accounting this is a good book however with out a little background it can be a little trying. | ||
