5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Non-Accountants
I found the book to be attractively put together and full of examples. They address both manufacturing and non-manufacturing environments - including service industries. Managerial Accounting is a vital tool for businesses as it provides techniques for making better business decisions based on data instead of "hunches". Nonetheless, the material can be difficult to get...

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Having previously read "Fundamental Financial Accounting Concepts" by the same people, this book was a disappointment. It came off as incredibly dry, and was not all that clear in its presentation of the concepts. The "Fundamental Financial Accounting" volume is great, but I'd recommend another author for the managerial book.

I found the book to be attractively put together and full of examples. They address both manufacturing and non-manufacturing environments - including service industries. Managerial Accounting is a vital tool for businesses as it provides techniques for making better business decisions based on data instead of "hunches". Nonetheless, the material can be difficult to get through. The authors understand this and use real-life examples to help give insight as to the way businesses use these analysis techniques. Because the material can be challenging, I can understand some people finding the material boring. However, given the type of material, I feel the authors have done a commendable job in communicating the material in an appealing way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, Great Service!, November 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I did not pick this book because it was the cheapest book there, I picked it because of the condition that the description said it was in. The book is in great condition and exactly as it was described. This book was a bargain for the money I spent on it. My book also arrived in a reasonable time, before my first class started. I recommend this seller to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fundamental Managerial Accounting Concepts, August 29, 2009
By 
The book was a required material for my Accounting course, but so far I like the way it is written. The learning concepts are presented in a well-organized and steady way, accompanied by examples. And there are lots of questions and problems to practice on. I only wish it was less expensive!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for a second accounting course, September 3, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Building upon introductory level material, the book starts with a fluffy review, moves into a description of basic components of the management structure and where costs originate from, then proceeds to costing methods.

The book ends with cash flow, but I think it should probably start with cash flow as this will fundamentally help in understanding if this is reviewed (or taught) first.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring read for good subject, April 16, 2002
By A Customer
Reading through this book is a BORE! :( Examples are almost non-existant, there's like nothing (like definitions) on the sides of the pages, and no glossary. How poorly written! Please find an alternative to learn this rather interesting subject. Thank you!
