2.0 out of 5 stars First Impressions - not too good
There are a lot of typos and errors in this book. It is like the editor didn't even do any editing. Not only did they incorrectly publish their web address -- there are multiple problems that are incorrect. So many, in fact, they have a section on their website dedicated to corrections -- but some very blatent ones I found aren't even there.

The worst one yet...

This review is from: Financial Accounting: A Bridge to Decision Making (Hardcover)
There are a lot of typos and errors in this book. It is like the editor didn't even do any editing. Not only did they incorrectly publish their web address -- there are multiple problems that are incorrect. So many, in fact, they have a section on their website dedicated to corrections -- but some very blatent ones I found aren't even there.

The worst one yet is in chapter three. The ledger for closing entries in the solutions (pg F104) for self-study problem #3 (page F102) is different from the ledger of closing entries in Exhibit 11 on page F97.

For the self study problem, it should debit/decrease Sales Revenue and increase/credit Retained earnings. The solution on page F104 for the self study problem shows debiting/decreasing Retained earnings and increasing/crediting Sales Revenue.

The complete opposite of a closing entry. The book is full of errors like these.

And the crazy page numbering should be another concern.

Not an impressive book. Confusing for students. If your professor is asking you get it -- beg him to get ANYTHING ELSE.

Oh and the website 'student resources' section is pathetic. Solutions on the web don't match questions in the book. Sample quizes are poorly written and difficult to understand, also.

1.0 out of 5 stars Picture Reflects Wrong Edition, August 14, 2008
By 
The picture shown reflects the 6th edition. The book sent was actually the 3rd edition. I had to return it at my own expense, but I did receive credit for the purchase price.
