I had to use this book for my on-line accounting 101 course, and I found if great to use. It had so many life like case studies, that it made it easy to understand. I recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a great intro to Accounting class content. It covers the basics and also it has on-line aspects and case studies through the Prentice Hall web site.

This book helped me get a good start in my Accounting college courses. It lays out the fundamental principles of Accounting simply and clearly. Its emphasis on the process leading to, creation of, and analysis of financial statements, would be very helpful to anyone who may need to understand just what a company's financial statements really mean

This is an easy book to follow. Lots of exercises for practice and the answers are in the text so you can check and see if you got it or if you need to study more.

Thorough introduction to financial accounting. Excellent attention to the basics, in a readable format. Support materials include Working Pages which give the forms used for the exercises and problems, and Study Guide, a review book with more support. This text is widely used in introductory accounting courses.
