Book Description

Larsen's Advanced Accounting provides complete and in-depth coverage of the topics typically taught in a one-or-two semester advanced accounting course, including partnerships, business combinations and consolidated financial statements. Faculty appreciate the current coverage of FASB and GASB regulations (FASB 141 & 142, GASB 34 &35), the wealth of thorough end-of-chapter material, and the in-depth coverage in this shorter length Advanced text. Flexibility is provided by modularly designed parts, each self-contained, that allow instructors to cover only chapters that are appropriate for their class.

Customer Reviews:

simplistic yet confusing.......2006-01-24

I adopted this text for use in a course I taught. I won't be using this book again. I feel guilty that my students had to pay good $ for it.

Very understandable explanations.......2004-06-17

Advanced accounting is an area where understanding the concepts that underlie procedures is crucial for solving new problems. This clearly written book excels at giving you the conceptual understanding you need to solve the problems you see on tests. It is especially good in explaining the knotty area of accounting for intercompany transfers.

I recently finished a demanding advanced accounting course for which I picked up this book to supplement the advanced accounting text used in the course. I learned much more from Larsen's book. Despite my somewhat thin at the time background in financial accounting I received an A- in the course. No way that would have hapenned without studying this book. I am sure it will also help in my CPA test preparation. The separately available study guide has good practice questions.

Advanced Accounting by E. John Larsen.......2004-05-31

This book emphasizes the advanced accounting subject areas for
the Uniform CPA Examination . It has a strong rendition of
partnership accounting, consolidations and eliminating entries
for intercompany sales, investment income, cost of sales and
minority interest computations. There is good coverage of
the specialized topics in advanced accounting; namely,
installment sales, present value computations and the non-profit accounting sector which may be tested on the Uniform CPA Exam
and graduate-level exams. The book is a worthy purchase. The Web dimension of the presentation adds considerable value to the overall purhase. Advanced accounting courses require preparation and considerable problem solving. Both aspects are emphasized heavily in the current rendition.

Excellent resource for comprehensive exams!!!.......2002-03-30

Author has a flawless style of writing and presenting accounting. It has clear-cut examples with no gimmicks. This is a great resource for reviewing for comprehensive exams.

Customer Reviews:

used only the cd.......2007-01-03

the software delivered on cd with this book is worth, i didn't read the book. the ERP simulator is a very good concept, the application itself however is buggy, i think they released unfinished beta version.

What is it? Pull everything and call it ERP?.......2001-03-23

I should believed Jim (another reviewer of this book). This book does not focus on ERP. Rather, it's a basic operation management book. There are only 2-3 chapters that really talk about ERP but only introduction. If you look for the introduction, "Daniel E. O'Leary" book is much more valuable (Enterprise Resource Planning Systems : Systems, Life Cycle, Electronic Commerce, and Risk). Although I am an IE, I don't think this book will be interesting other IE too. Like I said in subject, the author(s) try to pull everything, e.g., SCM, OM, and ERP and call it's an integration. The simulation game does not capture neither "fundamental" or "application". I still don't understand why APICS publish this book in the market.

Excellent guide for ERP users and providers.......2000-05-17

As an almost novice in ERP systems, I found it interesting to follow up all the chapters of this book: "ERP; tools, techniques, and applications for integrating the supplu chain". The book starts with the history of ERP and descriptions of every aspect of enterprise production systems. Chapters on backgrounds for operations management and each module of ERP systems follow this introductory part. At the end, real-world application issues and implementation problems are discussed. Examples and attached simulator (MICSS, contained in a CD-ROM) provide further demonstration of real case studies. I recommend this book to the intermediate level of ERP users of developers.
