  - Decent supplement, but doesn't stand well on its own.I bought this book to help supplement a college text for a management accounting class I took recently. While the book itself isn't going to teach you everything about management accounting that you'll need/want to know, it is a decent supplement to more professional texts. It did help to clarify a few concepts, and simplify some things, but it is not in-depth enough to teach all of the relevant material you would learn by taking a management accounting college course. Rating:  - Mystifies more often than not.Unfortunately, this book does not live up to its title. The author clearly knows his subject, but is a poor teacher. From the outset, synonymous terms are used interchangeably without warning or explanation. Example problems (such as identifying costs in a table in chapter 2) are too dissimilar to real problems that you are meant to work out (the terms in the table columns have been changed so that it isn't clear what cost definitions you are working with anymore). If anyone is using this book to get the basics of management accounting, he will find this book inconsistent, convoluded and difficult - unnecessarily. Better organization and a critical editor's eye would have made this a much better book. |
