 Good textbook, could be slightly better Jul 24, 2010
By California Dreamin
"sr538"
I've taught a graduate class based on the 12th and 13th (current) edition of this textbook several times. In general this is one of the better textbooks I use. It is 95% accurate and up to date, and it is 70% complete, and it's focus matches the purpose of the class. Changes I would like to see in the next edition include:
* Discuss the use of flashcards to pass the CPA exam, encourage flashcard study habits, and list suggested flashcards for this class.
* Expand coverage of general ethics concepts; how to determine the correct action when in an ethical "grey area".
* Add an accounting workpaper style guide.
* Add training on writing accounting memos for various purposes.
* Add coverage of the accounting close process, the players in this process, and on the negotiation of AJEs between auditors and management.
* Explain methods of accounting research used to resolve disputes between auditors and management.
* Describe the AU codified auditing standards and methods of research therein.
* Improve coverage of SOX opinion, OCBOA (tax basis) opinions, and IFRS audit opinions.
* Increase emphasis on cut-off testing and other tests for the completeness assertion.
* Discuss PCAOB AS5, and related SEC management guidelines.
* Increase coverage of specific entity level controls, audit committee independence and effectiveness, related matters and example checklists.
* Cover Excel techniques for auditors.
* Trim the last chapters on specific business cycles which contain excess material that is not particularly useful, nor relevant nor up to date.
* Edit the book more thoroughly; we found a few errors.
* Expand the table of contents.
* Improve or omit the software on the CD. The software I looked at is not particularly useful nor user friendly.
 Ordered a textbook Mar 21, 2012
By eychen
I got this book two days from when I ordered the book, and I doubt anyone really dislikes classes/textbooks so much that they must get it out of their hands as soon as possible. Was pleasantly surprised at how well the book was wrapped in the box and how well the box was taped up. The condition of the book was accurately described; the cover was banged up but the pages still looked brand new, even with a bit of writing on them.
Nice for Price! Mar 01, 2012
By DIVA 111
I looked for this book online with my college bookstore. New it was $ 239.00, used $ 180.00. I saved a ton of money on this book. Even though it's used, it has no real damage or writing inside. It even comes with the CD and it's enclosed at the back of the book! I paid $ 54.00 including shipping. And, I ordered it 3 days ago and already received the book!
Talk about a score!

 Amazon sells books as "new" but they really aren't Sep 01, 2010
By Roxanne Jones
I was extremely disappointed to see amazon sold me a "new book" but it was not. It clearly had marks in the binding from opening and closing and the corners had some wear.

 Ok Jul 24, 2010
By Y. Sekine
"Yocchi"
This is a book required to buy for my class. What I did not like about this book is that it does not come with study guide and study guide for this book is not published. Other than that, it is ok.
