College Accounting, Chapters 1-12 11th Edition

"I like the structure and the layout of the book. The examples are straight-forward, and ones the students can identify with. There are many exercises and problems for practicing and reinforcing the material from the chapter. I find the Excel activities useful for students to review the material again and for them to work with Excel. I am very happy with the text."
