Review
"I like what I (see) in Chapter 2. The authors take the contents of two annual reports and go through them very thoroughly. I don't think that other texts do this as well." John R. Simon, Northern Illinois University
"I believe focusing a financial statement text on analysis makes very good sense, and such a book has been long overdue." Bento J. Lobo, University of Louisiana-Lafayette
"The sequencing and organization of the text is outstanding. I particularly like the presentation of the financial statements followed by analytic issues early in the text." Chuck Fazzi, Robert Morris College
