5.0 out of 5 stars The Holy Grail, February 3, 2009
This review is from: Income Tax Fundamentals 2009 (with TaxCut Tax CD-ROM) (Paperback)
This is the best book written on individual income taxes for those taking accounting classes trying to learn the practical knowledge needed to be a CPA. The text walks you through each section providing step-by-step instructions how to prepare individual tax forms and you are given problem that require you to fill them out. What a concept!

This is an amazing relief from Hoffman and South-Western publishings "Individual Income Taxes". If you have been assigned that book, after you have finished gnashing your teeth and rending your beard. Get this book and LEARN SOMETHING USEFUL.

This review is from: Income Tax Fundamentals 2009 (with TaxCut Tax CD-ROM) (Paperback)
This book is very informative and very easy to understand. For someone who does not have a lot of income tax or accounting experience, it is easy to follow and has very concise instructions for filing your or someone else's taxes.

Income Tax Fundamentals 2009 (with TaxCut Tax CD-ROM) This book was waiting too long, and CD is little broken inside of it. But I need it and had patience to get it finally. Price is affordable.
