Problem-Solving Survival Guide: Intermediate Accounting Vol. 2, Chapters 15-24

The problem solving guide gave excellent chapter sumarry for test review. The additional tips and explanations aided my understanding of the material and working through the problems showed practical applications of the material. I think it improved my class grade from a C to a high B. Highly reccomend it to students like me.

Must have to accompany the textbook

The title, Survival Guide, is exactly as it means. This workbook, that accompanies `Intermediate Accounting' by Donald Kieso, is necessary to survive and understand intermediate accounting! The key is it gives you many more examples and probable situations to solve than the textbook could handle. I would not have done as well as I did in class without it!

Problem-Solving Survival Guide: Int Act. Vol. 2 Ch 15-24

Completing the workbook items really helps reinforce concepts and offers great practice for tests. The book is not perfect. There's an occasional typo, and I wish there was more space to write in the workbook, and I was expecting it to cost a bit less, but in my opinion the book is very worthwhile to use.

Intermediate Accounting

Haven't used this book yet. Will next semester. Volume I of this series was of great use to me. By practising the exercises my memory retention and understanding went a whole lot further. I would say this would be a worthwhile purchase.

The end of a long search !

Iam an Asian-Indian,who came to the United States recently.Iam a B.Com graduate and M.B.A specialising in Finance.After years of specialising in Accounting and Finance in the British system,I was totally lost when I came to the US ,when I tried to improve my qualifications to an American C.P.A. I needed to go through and practice problems in the American system of accounting. I was wandering aimlessly and without any help into the websites selling books trying to match the ones that meet my requirements for a CPA exam.Finally I approached a friend at work who was formerly teaching at a local school.She recommended "Self study problems and solutions to accompany Intermediate accounting" by Keiso and Weygandt.I bought both the volumes of that book,It is a great book for self study. It starts with the very basics of introducing the conceptual framework of accounting and basic chapters like Recivables accounting,Cashflows,inventory accounting,Accounting for assets and current liabilities in its 1st Volume to more complex chapters like retained earnings,accounting for income taxes and for Retirement benefits in the 2nd Volume.It was of immense help to me not only to brush up my fundamental concepts but also to work out several problems and compare them with the solutions provided and to make myself stong in intermediate accounting. Thanks to Keiso and Wegandt, I can now sit for my exam with confidence. I would highly recommend this book to all intermediate students and to students from other countries such as myself.
