Product Description

Designed for a senior level course in advanced accounting, this text delivers a balanced and detailed approach to the conceptual and technical aspects of advanced accounting. Reflective of the current state of the international accounting landscape, this new edition discusses the upcoming globalization of accounting standards with frequent references to the FASB's new Codification system and with a "compare and contrast" method for explaining the differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS.

In addition, Advanced Accounting includes comprehensive coverage of all three methods of consolidated financial reporting (cost, partial equity, complete equity). Authored with both the student and teacher in mind, margin icons and labels distinguish all three methods and other pedagogical features.

12nd Edition means many errors
By A Customer
Recognize that this is only a second edition and that all the bugs have not been worked out yet. I have found several typos, misprints, errored calculations, etc. within this text. Also, the layout is not student friendly. Studying for several hours from this text will cause headaches. It is very difficult to look back in a chapter and find something as the sections don't readily stand out. The authors appear to struggle at times to clarify the issues surrounding a topic. Very often this vague writing leaves the student with the responsibility of deciphering the author's intentions. Also, the errors can cause horrendous confusion. They can be overcome, but only when the student understands the material enough to recognize an error. Overall, this is a fairly poor book especially for those looking to learn advanced accounting. This book should be more accurate as the only change it really recieved is an update concerning the impairment of goodwill.

1Tension Headache
By D. King
I am disgusted that of all the Advanced Accounting books available my university chose this book. If you want to learn Advanced Accounting, chose another alternative. This book will give you a headache.

5The reviewer who read the book
By Student
This book is really fun to read. It presents the three methods(partial equity, full equity, and cost method)in worked-out accounting sheets and refer to the journal entries, I do not know why some of the reviewers gave it one star. I read the book completely and the only thing I was not happy about was the use of small letters in the last three chapters, I would have given this book 4 stars but I read the reviews from the reviewers that gave it one star and I do not agree with them. I am giving it 5 stars. My opinion is this book deserves 4 or 5 stars
