This course is confusing, but only because the nature of this concept is contrary to my learning style. I learned a lot and enjoyed the challenge.

The course is thorough, yet it seemed to assume the student has more advanced accounting knowledge than other courses, making progress difficult at times. For this reason, I would rate it a 3 star course.

The content of this course is great. However, the examples and exercises are dated in the 1990’s. this book hasn’t been edited for 20 years. At the very lea, the dates need to be edited to reflect the current times. I like the ring-bound edition as it is easy to lay the book open on a table to read or take notes, whereas the glue-bound books want to close themselves as soon as you take your hand off of the pages. The content is excellent, but the dated material leaves a feeling of a sell-off of old material.
