I read this textbook across two bookkeeping courses I took online through UCLA Extension. As can be expected from an accounting textbook, this was dry and often dizzying, but the figures and checkpoint problems were very helpful at putting the text into practical terms. Not the first book I’d recommend for folks getting into bookkeeping, but certainly a helpful one.
