Product Description

Motivate Accounting Students!

Kimmel Accounting 3e, helps students hit the road with a practical set of tools, and the confidence they need to use those tools effectively in making business decisions. The goal is to introduce a new Principles of Accounting text that better reflects a more conceptual and decision-making approach to the material.

The authors have taken a new "macro- to micro-" approach to the Principles of Accounting course by starting with a discussion of real financial statements first, rather than starting with the Accounting Cycle (although the Accounting Cycle is thoroughly covered in Chapters 3 and 4). The objective is to establish how a financial statement communicates the financing, investing, and operating activities of a business to users of accounting information. They motivate students by grounding the discussion in the real world, showing them the relevance of the topics covered to their future career.

3.0 out of 5 stars This book was incompleted., September 22, 2008
When I said incomplete, It's means the book was supposed to include a cd (chapter exercises, etc.). I didn't receive it.

3.0 out of 5 stars consider your options, December 18, 2008
By Sarah French (45 min NW of the middle of nowhere.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is usually required. As far as texts go, it's not bad. However, it's about 25 lbs. There is a version that is made to go in a 3 ring binder I would reccomend, cause you can just sling the chapters you need over you shoulder and leave the other 15 pounds at home.
Also, I had to buy an online thing to go with this that the new version comes with. It was $80, so factor that into your costs if your instructor will make you use Wiley Plus.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to follow yet thorough, September 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book makes accounting quite easy to understand. The problems are broken up into confusing categories for each chapter (Summary exercises, brief exercises labeled BE, Exercises, Problem Set A, Problem Set B, etc) but the problems are quite helpful while not requiring too much unnecessary writing. I would highly recommend this book, especially for college courses.
