As good as it can be for a school book. I loved the online version. It had PowerPoint slides for each section that covered what that section would be about. Helped make the information easier to understand.

I can’t bring myself to rate a textbook more than 3 stars, but I would say this is about 3.5 stars. The ebook textbook is so very user friendly. Mostly the ease of use can be contributed to the WileyPlus platform. I really enjoyed all the interactive problems and the fact that the homework has little videos for you to practice the solutions in a step by step process. I enjoyed being able to complete my exams through this platform as well. Overall this is a great book to help you learn Cost Accounting; flexible budgets, incremental analysis, responsibility reports etc.

I had fun in Accounting and was even considering in minoring or switching my concentration to that area of business, but then I reached managerial, and that was when I was slapped back into reality.
