The pages are thin and easily tear off the binder because the book is so thick. In addition the explanations in the text are vague, convoluted and complicated. The exercises in Cengage are ridiculously time consuming and make leaps and assumptions that the student can bridge a gap.

Example: under capital expenditure the words overhaul are used three times as applying to a capital expenditure. But when used in the exercise on Cengage, then it is not. I am an adult student, working in the nuclear industry and returning to school. I manage contracts and we deal with capital expenditure all the time. The book was nothing like reality.

Example:
I am on exercise 9, part 3 on Cengage. I get to where it tells me to compute the working capital. I go to the book and under "Working capital" in th index it is ONLY s"supposedly" covered in pages 678-679. That’s chapter 13, not chapter 9. But then I go to those pages to see an illustrated computation of how to get the working capital- and NOWHERE on those two pages are the words Working and Capital used. Nor is the example related to it. If it is in any way, it is too obscure for someone who up to know has had a 4.0 GPA to even begin to understand.

This is the worst text book I’ve ever worked with. I’ve never hated a class as much as this; and the main reason: is because I HAVE LEARNED NOTHING!!

Excellent written book. Good practice problems and written in a very understandable context.

Great! Love it. Book came very fast and is in great shape as if it is brand new. Thank You!
