Although the text is written at a relatively easy reading level, I do not feel that the content covers all of the details necessary to equip you to complete the exercises. If you have a professor explaining things to you, though, I'm sure it'll do. This is the new text chosen by my correspondence college. For Intermediate I they had the text Intermediate Accounting by Dykman, Dukes, and Davis. I am glad I still have Dykman's text so I can learn the material! If you are trying to learn Intermediate Accounting on your own, I recommend Dykman's text!

This review referrs to the Problem Solving Guide Volume II, that covers chapters 15-25.

This book is a must for anyone who is taking an intermediate accounting class that uses the Kieso/Weygandt accounting text.

I found this book very helpful because it provides questions and solutions that are almost exactly like the questions that come from the test bank and are used on our exams. Students in our class who use this book generally do much better than those who do not. This book will help you understand what it is the author wants you to get out of the chapter. Frankly, the this book should raise your grade if you take an hour or two before each test and answer the multiple choice questions that it provides.
I wouldn't buy this book unless I were taking a class. But I probably wouldn't buy any textbooks unless I were taking a class.

As a recent accounting graduate, and current graduate student, I can tell you that this text is one of the best accounting books I ever read. Intermediate Accounting is a tough, voluminous subject, which is why it takes two semesters to get through it! Keiso and Weygandt do a great job of walking students through the specifics of a topic, along with its history, alternatives, and the profession's arguments for and against some of the more controversial ones. The problems and cases following the chapters are extremely challenging and thought-provoking; great supplements to the readings and class lectures. If you are an accounting professor, or an accounting student or professional, this book is a fantastic textbook and excellent resource during your career. I will have it in my cubicle at my firm!
