Good

It helps me to find out the ratio analysis. I have a Course this semester that's why I want to read this one.

Highly technical

[Clare · Rating 2 out of 5]

Daunting for the non-accountant. Terrifying, in fact. This book is more advanced than I realised, and didn't help me as much with my CFA studies as I had hoped it would. If I didn't understand the study notes, it was unlikely that I'd understand the textbook!

Excellent if you want to understand financial statements and the many places they can mislead you.
