This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Principles of Accounting II (Paperback)
If a company is going to buy assets to turn a profit, it has to first get capital from somewhere, right? And in the course of making sales and providing services, it needs to literally account for the use of that capital. Lerner and Cashin make readers comfortable working with major sources of capital in an easy to understand way.
Chapters 3 through 8 are the heart and soul of the book. They explore common stock issuance, subscriptions and treasury stock, retained earnings and bonds. By doing the "Solved Problems" and chapter-end exercises, I came to a much better understanding of accounting mechanics pertaining to capital concerns.
The book is also very valuable for those seeking to better understand manufacturing accounting, cost systems and budgets, as well as financial statement analysis.
Consistently clear, the authors do an excellent job in helping those interested in accounting better understand the subject matter. They helped me - I hope you benefit too!

I was taking an Online Accounting Class and just wasn't grasping it. I had resigned myself to failing the class and taking again in a classroom setting, when it hit me...see if there is a workbook somewhere. Came here, saw the recommendations and ordered it. I didn't fail and don't have to take Accounting again. Thank you.

It was very clear and thorough. It is a pretty guide review for the Clep exam, but you will need to study Principles of Accounting II also for the Principles of Accounting CLEP.

Very pleased with the way this order turned out. They said it was used but still good looking and it really was. there was just a little use on the cover but the book was completely fine. Extremely satisfied that I only paid a few bucks for this and it was exactly as they said it would be. I would use this seller again.

I have been through 3 accounting books: Heinz & Parry, this one, and Kieso-Weygandt-Warfield. Wild-Shaw-Chiapetta is third in quality. Reason #1 They over-designed it. I counted 23 colors on one page. Publishers, take note: black on white is easiest to read. #2 The CAP Model: Learning objectives are labeled as Conceptual, Analytical, or Procedural, and these are independently numbered. First, what are the students supposed to do when a section is labeled "C"-- put on their Conceptual Thinking Caps? And then when we see "P" we're supposed to get into a Procedural mindset? Second, these are not helpful chapter markers. You might see an exercise labeled P2, so you start looking through the chapter for the P2 section. But it could come before C1, or after A1. In contrast, the other 2 accounting books use Learning Objectives (Heinz) or Objectives (Kieso). Objective 6 comes after 5 (imagine that!), so it is easier to find the section you need.

This was the book I needed for Accounting II, and I appreciated the fact that I received it prior to the start of my class, it also saved me some money because college text books can be expensive, and the shcool did not have any in stock . Thanks for having this book.
