So glad to be done with this book and these classes. As a first time accounting student, I found this textbook to be very frustrating. It frequently talked about an example on one page and actually showed the example of the next page, causing me to constantly flip back-and-forth. It made reading and doing homework really annoying. I get that maybe they were trying to save space and paper, but in future editions I really hope they fix this for other students.
