I don't know what edition of the textbook (Accounting Principles - Weygandt, Kimmel, Kieso) these working papers are supposed to track with but darn sure isn't the 9th edition! Everything is good until around chapter 8 or 9. After that...forget about it. This is supposed to be the latest edition of the working papers (released January 2010) and if I am not mistaken the 9th edition is the latest version of the textbook.

This book supplies all of the working papers for every problem posed in the Financial Accounting with Annual Report, 5th Ed. The beauty of the papers, which you will probably never use up in your entire lifetime, is that if you pull out the page applicable to your assignment, you'll quickly see if you forgot to include something. For example, if you are journalizing entries and you end up with six lines, you know that you forgot something because the papers are designed to give you just enough room to finish each assignment. Several times the papers saved me in just this manner before I turned in my assignments.

Now, if I could just figure out what to do with the remaining papers.

This book makes it very easy to answer the chapter problems. The forms help organize the information saving you time. This is especially helpful when you need to create financial statements for the homework.
The biggest benefit was how easy it was to do extra homework to study for exams. Since you don't have to make the journals and forms from scratch.
The workbook was not required for my accounting class but I searched it out on Amazon because I knew it would be a great help.
I recommend this book.
