I originally bought this product for a class, but the instructor rarely used it because he didn't like it that much. I had a difficult time understanding what this book was communicating because it was written in such a way that it isn't very easy to understand.

The book is very confusing and does not communicate the ideas very well. The chapter problems at the end of each chapter are pretty much worthless. I cannot believe I purchased this book for over 250 dollars.

The product came in only a few days and when it came, it was in PERFECT condition! It looks like the book was never even used before and I would have never gotten something as nice used from a campus bookstore and would have paid 10x's more. LOVE this seller for textbooks!

This is poorly written, verbose, confusing.

The authors/editors have not written for their audience. The audience is an advanced accounting student or someone who needs "to prepare for the cpa /cma exam". The writing seems intended for a high-schooler who has no experience with business or accounting terms whatsoever.

The content over-describes everything and literally defines basic words including as "value", "risk, "reward".

Grammatical errors abound that only a ten-year-old should make.

Needs to be reformatted and take non-essential content out and put in a side bar.

Amateur hour!

This textbook was required for my graduate-level Managerial Accounting class. Obviously, textbooks are not usually read for pure enjoyment and I would not have purchased this book on my own. However, it served its purpose well and clearly presented the concepts of management accounting with understandable text and visuals.

This book is text book in my class so I have to use it. However, I like the way the content is written and displayed in the book.

Easy to read and simple writing style. The authors are able to explain complicated concepts in the way that helps the reader understand them quickly. This international edition is exactly the same as the overpriced US edition. Thumbs up!

This textbook is a must have for learning accounting. It is very informative and is ideal for helping you to prepare for the CPA exam.

Cost Management: Strategies for Business Decisions is the best textbook on Managerial Accounting topics out there right now. The text presents the topics in real world scenarios and examples to facilitate learning of cost management concepts.

Amazon had the best price for this book overall. I'm an online student and would have to order my books from the College Campus Bookstore. Their price was originally cheaper but only for a used book. However, with shipping and handling their price came out to be more than Amazon's new book price. Besides, Amazon offers the study guide too.
