Schaums Outline of Intermediate Accounting I, Second Edition

Ok...I normally don't write reviews on any site, but when I tell you this book helped me pass my Intermediate class!!!!!!!!! I just did not pass the class I received an A in the class. The book does an excellent job explaining the concepts and material in just a brief and concise way. Each chapter is about 7 to 8 pages long, it ends with a chapter summary and practice problems that you can do to reiterate the concept. My friends saw the Schaums book I had, read the first few pages and told me "I'm purchasing this book!" Simply amazing is all I can say. Get this book! I repeat..GET THIS BOOK!

I'm going back to campus this semester and taking Intermediate Accting again after so many failed attempts due to a mental illness but this book has made it so easy to study. There are problems you can do towards the end of each chapter and it makes this class so much more easier than compared to the actual crappy accounting books used in actual classes. I love and definitely recommend this book!!! I use the older version from 1995 and read it electronically. I will definitely have to get the update but I am sure there isnt much of a difference.

This will be great for any student of intermediate accounting, or as a review for advanced students. The only thing to keep in mind is that there is not sufficient space to work many of the problems, so use with a notebook as a companion. Also, the answers are right beneath the problem, so they may need to be covered over with a sheet of paper. I love having the answers to give me feedback if I understood or not.

this book helped me understand what my college Intermediate Accounting I teacher was trying to get across though he couldn't teach to save his life. If I didn't have this book I would of probably completly failed out especially with online only teaching and none of my college course teachers know how to use zoom or how to post a white screen they can write on to walk students through problems that this book helped me tremendiously on.

I think everybody and their mother has to use the Kieso Intermediate Accounting textbook for class. That book is super dry and the material can be overwhelming at times. This study guide helped me to focus on the main concepts of each chapter with easy to understand examples. I haven't found a better alternative elsewhere for Intermediate Accounting. The book does need an update, but you'll survive with this edition until then. Don't even think of approaching an exam without reading this study guide first.

It's very informative and it did help to brush up on my skills but I don't like that the solutions are below the questions.

These books are excellent value. They are about 40% discounted on what I would've paid on the Barnes and Noble website, so I highly recommend buying them new through amazon. Also, the content of the book is great because if you are a visual learner it really breaks down accounting problems and gives the solution. I think its a great addition to your current college textbook since most college textbooks don't have solutions to the end of chapter problems without an instructor's manual. (At least the one we use in class doesn't).

This book really helps with clarification, when you just need additional sets of problems to work, and to see what types of situations you will run into in the real world. I recommend buying this book to read in your spare time or use in addition to your accounting courses. This helped bridge the gap between the classroom learning, past knowledge, and what I currently am studying in the classroom today. This book exceeded my expectations and will be purchasing more items from this author.

i am studying the Intermediate Accounting 1 recommended by a CPA course I would like to ask a question , concerning to contents on the textbook. on the book 1 page 5, in the example 10; i had some much confusion as the analysis and entry does not match. Question is :supplies of $500 are purchased on account. i think the right effect on the accounting equation should be, supplies increase and liab. increase. but the textbook says differently. i really need help , can anyone help me with this little problem. is it a typo mistake on the textbook or do i understand it wrong? well, except for this trouble i am having, this book is so far, awesome. It really makes me think. but not very suitable for a beginner in accounting ( a introductory course is needed, i think)
