This broke down all the difficult prose of textbook texts into clear and concise paragraph explanations. So organized and extremely helpful - it really made the class a lot easier.

Hands down this is the best study aid for corporate and partnership tax I've found. This helped me get an A and A+ in those classes. It covered the exact same material as the text book (same authors), but much more clearly and concisely. Also, it contains allot of useful examples as well as review problems. I found the review problems especially helpful close to exam time.

As a companion to the Fundamentals of Business Enterprise Taxation textbook by the same authors, buying this supplement is a no-brainer. The textbook is fine, but never having taken a tax class before, I would not have been able to distill out the rules the way in which this outline does and I wish I'd bought it much earlier in the semester. The fact that it is keyed almost exactly to the textbook sections makes it easy to find specific concepts I was having trouble with.

This book is organized strangely, and while the prose is sometimes clear, at other times it's much more difficult to understand than the sources of law it's trying to summarize. Not worth the money, in my opinion.
