Customer Reviews

Waste of money
I bought this book, and then immediately returned it. Save yourself the money and buy a columnar pad for about $3! Just another money-making gimmick -- as if they don't make enough from the textbooks and study guides!

if you know what to expect...
I bought these for my Financial Reporting class, knowing exactly what I was ordering. The working papers give you exactly enough space to do every problem presented in the book, so you have some sort of a hint of if you're on the right track. If you are looking for a study guide, this is NOT the thing to buy. This is simply a book with space to do the problems so you don't waste notebook paper, and it makes your problems easy to refer to later on.
