4Good 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.

5Ordered 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.


5Good  Jan 13, 2013 By l
It is unbelievable that I can get the book at such low price. Good condition and it worth the price.


5Auditing Supplement  Jan 07, 2013 By holyfire
This book was a very good supplement for my online class. It is always good to see the information outside of a computer. I actually paid a considerable amount less than the online book itself.


4Nice 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!
