This review is from: Fundamentals of Cost Accounting (Hardcover)
The previous review of this book is entirely inaccurate. The books website does not require an access code, it requires you to read ALL of the instructions on the very first page of the book to figure out how to get to the correct site. The website for this text is incredibly helpful, it contains pre-made flashcards, study guides, outlines, a glossary for each chapter, quizes, powerpoint slides, and the best part... It has all of the presentations set-up with audio available to download directly into itunes so you can load it onto your ipod! I have used this site almost more than I have used the book, and the best part is it is FREE!

This review is from: Fundamentals of Cost Accounting (Hardcover)
I like the fact the company does not require an access code like many publishers to get online information. After I sell this book back at the end of the semester I will still be able to reread any power points I may need or look back at the definitions.

This review is from: Fundamentals of Cost Accounting (Hardcover)
I need this book for my cost accounting class, and I think it's pretty decent. It's easy to understand, there are pictures and graphs, and the website for the book is very helpful. However, I think it's kind of simplified and dumbed down, although that could just be the material itself.
