Survey of Accounting

by Thomas P. Edmonds, Bor-Yi Tsay, Philip R. Olds

Survey of Accounting, 3rd edition, is designed to cover both financial and managerial accounting in a single 16-week course, presenting the material in a style easy for non-accounting majors to grasp. It incorporates the same pedagogical innovations that have made Edmonds’ financial and managerial titles such fast-growing successes in the marketplace, including his unique Horizontal Financial Statements Model and a multiple accounting cycle approach that demonstrates the impact of related events over a series of accounting cycles.

Wish the book did a better job of explaining and showing how to work out the journal entries and problems. Also, very dry read.

The opposite of exciting..
not that everything has to be overtly exciting but..this is the opposite of that also.Reading this book is like trying to escape a tender conversation with an OLD person @ smack dab midday.. you know they have nothing else to do all day after probably having finished walking around an empty park so torture.. torture..TORTURE!. Oh yeah if you can't sleep at night try this book your eyes will jump out from your pretty face and run into the closet straight into your shirt pockets (yes I typed into twice). Don't drive and read this book. Driving and reading is criminal but driving and reading this book is diabolical as doing so will bring about the next apocalypse of candy coated nothingness. Think of your favorite activity and this book is pretty much the ruination of such activity like a nuclear dawn on your picnic blanket fringe. Unless you like accounting then this book is pretty much ACE.. although I suspect it might not be..
