Intermediate Accounting by Kieso and Weygandt

This text was utilized by me in graduate school and in studyingfor and passing the Uniform CPA Examination. The work hasa thorough coverage of theory and practice. It is geared foraccounting majors or more advanced business students.Few texts provide the "bold-font" presentation of an accountingterm followed by the accompanying definition. The problem setsare challenging. The text will help you to study for the CPAexamination because the presentation contains many problemsets geared to prepare students for rigorous examinations.The text is well worth the price .

There is no other like it

When it comes to Intermediate Accounting, this book provides a better framework than any other period. I used the 9th edition while in College, and have re-ordered the 10th edition for the CPA exam. Quite frankly, not even the great Becker Convisor is as good as this book. Maybe I find it better than others because this is what I had used while taking intermidiate accounting. I have looked at other textbooks, and they could not match Mr. Keiso's textbook in organization nor could they match it in ability to explain complex issues in an easy to understand manner. This book should be in any employee's office who must deal with accounting issues and needs guidance occasinaly. I must warn you, this edition is outdated as there have been many changes since the Sarbanes-Oxley act was passed by congress. So, you may want to wait until the 11th edition comes out, as that will master all of the changes that have occured in the industry since ENRON and WORLDCOM's collapse. If you are someone who feels overwhelmed by the entire subject, this book will organize it into compartments and allow you to understand not only the entire framework, but the details as well.

BEST ACCOUNTING TEXT YET

THIS IS THE BEST ACCOUNTING TEXT I'VE SEEN YET. ALL CONCEPTS ARE EASY TO FOLLOW AND UNDERSTAND. WISH MORE PROFESSORS WOULD SEARCH FOR TEXTBOOKS AS GOOD AS THIS.

Excellent book, but no solutions!

This is an excellent book, very well written and comprehensive. However, without an instructor or a complete solutions manual, this book is impossible to use! When are authors and publishers going to learn that a beautifully thoughtout set of exercises is utterly worthless in a quantitative subject like Accounting without the solutions available! I'm presently taking a course from this book, however I would never buy this book for personal use - no answers!

Very helpfull book

This book has helped me a lot in my accounting course. This has given me all the tools that I need to become an accountant. It covers so much ground and it gives you all the current issues of whats going on in the accounting world. I'm very gratefull to have acquired this book and my very best professor who is teaching it.
