I used this text as an instructor in a university-level Cost Control Systems course and was exceptionally disappointed. The book is riddled with errors, as are the accompanying Excel exercises on the CD-ROM. This book takes a relatively simple subject and makes it exceptionally confusing through it's poor delivery. For added difficulty, they didn't change the instructor's manual when they switched editions. They simply slapped a new cover on the old edition's manual, so it doesn't match up to the questions and problems. When I spoke with the publisher, they were friendly but offered no real assistance. Please don't have your students waste their money on this book.

I recieved this book in wonderful condition and at a great price, I was also very pleasently suprised when it arrived earlier than estimated. Very satisfied with service and product.

This was my first ebook, textbook and if you consider the difference in pricing it was worth it. We really didn't use the book much so I was glad that I hadn't spent the 100 or so dollars it cost at the school bookstore. We also jumped around a lot so I really liked having the option of searching the text for specific things. Nice feature on the Kindle. The only thing I didn't like was the fact that there weren't any page numbers. That made it hard to find certain pages the chef had us reading for homework. Overall, I'd say it was worth the savings.

Its in pretty good condition, arrived quick enough for me to use it and study for my test, which was nice

I purchased this book for almost half as much as the campus bookstore was selling it for, and it arrived in a timely manner in excellent condition. Thanks!

I needed this book for my Accounting class, and by buying it at Amazon.com I saved a lot of money. The book was in great shape, like new.
