Customer Reviews:
very clear and thorough.......2007-01-11
It was very clear and thorough. It is pretty good for the CLEP, but you will need Principles of Accounting 1 too.
Finaly I got it........2006-11-30
Wow! It's realy simple and awesome book for who is looking for accounting knowledge.
Schaum's Outline of Principles of Accounting I (Shcaum's).......2006-03-10
Presented in manner to make it easy to understand and practice. I became an "accountant" within the period I took to go through the entire book-one month! Now I do my own accounts using the principles I leant and a Peachtree accounting software.
I will be purchasing Schaum's other books.
Want to Learn Accounting? Buy this Book!.......2005-05-05
I admit it. I used to be intimidated with accounting. Its concepts were somewhat of a mystery. Debits and credits, journals and ledgers, balance sheets and income statements, adjusting entries, etc. You get the picture.
A year and a half ago, I bought this book. I now enjoy accounting because the authors were so successful and effective in teaching its precepts. Lerner and Cashin have turned muddy water into a clear pool. Why weren't my college professors so effective?
I read this book from cover to cover. I'm hoping that others will benefit as much as I have from this book. Chapters cover: accounting concepts, financial statements, transactional classification, adjusting and closing procedures, business and merchandising worksheets, methods of valuing inventory, receivables, cash and its control, payroll, and also property plant and equipment
The magic of this book revolves around lucid explanations and practical examples. The authors teach the principles, provide numerous examples and then afford the reader the opportunity to apply the lessons material. The book takes you step by step and builds upon the fundamentals.
If you take the time to do the chapter end problems, you should benefit greatly from this introduction to accounting.
Truly, I think the book is a wonderful resource and guide.
Book Description
Taking the same practical approach as Principles of Accounting I, this book teaches the second part of introductory accounting courses, including FASB requirements for the statement of cash flow. Covering specialized areas and aspects of business such as manufacturing costs, budgets, standard costs and financial ratios, the contents match those of the leading acocunting textbooks. Students in regular and special accounting prgrams and nonmajors will also appreciate the selection of fully solved problems.

very clear and thorough.......2007-01-11
It was very clear and thorough. It is a pretty guide review for the Clep exam, but you will need to study Principles of Accounting II also for the Principles of Accounting CLEP.
Great "Nuts and Bolts" Book.......2005-11-23
If a company is going to buy assets to turn a profit, it has to first get capital from somewhere, right? And in the course of making sales and providing services, it needs to literally account for the use of that capital. Lerner and Cashin make readers comfortable working with major sources of capital in an easy to understand way.
Chapters 3 through 8 are the heart and soul of the book. They explore common stock issuance, subscriptions and treasury stock, retained earnings and bonds. By doing the "Solved Problems" and chapter-end exercises, I came to a much better understanding of accounting mechanics pertaining to capital concerns.
The book is also very valuable for those seeking to better understand manufacturing accounting, cost systems and budgets, as well as financial statement analysis.
Consistently clear, the authors do an excellent job in helping those interested in accounting better understand the subject matter. They helped me - I hope you benefit too!
Review principles of accounting II.......2005-09-14
The delivery was good. The condition of the book was good (new book). I would not hasate to buy another book in the future.
Book Description
Many students find introductory economics interesting but difficult, so they will really appreciate this study tool designed to make the core material easier to understand. A summary and list of key terms begins each chapter, providing readers with a "map" and hundreds of problems with detailed solutions illustrate and amplify key points. A chapter devoted to drafting and interpreting graphs helps students gain a facility with this material essential for mastering.
Customer Reviews:
.... just OK.......2006-03-13
I purchased a few books in preparation for the macro/micro econ CLEP tests. Among these books is the Schaums Principles of Economics book. From my experience, the book is not very thorough. Perhaps it will help you understand economics -- and for some people, I am sure it is a sufficient study aid -- but there are definitely better Econ books out there. The book that I am reading right now is Barron's Economics, which I find to be much more detailed. A significant difference between the two books is that the Barron's version is ~580 pages long (about 200 pages longer than the Schaums), but these pages are full of additional material that is not found in Schaums (in other words, it is not a waste of paper). Although both books seem to cover roughly the same material, I have noticed that the Barron's book includes some interesting chapters (such as Game Theory) that are not even mentioned in the Schaum's book.
One more thing that I find important is that the Barron's book has smaller dimensions than the Schaums book and is therefore much more manageable (and enjoyable to read).
Luckily, the used prices for this book are pretty low, so you can always do what I did and just buy both of the books! If you are interested in more books that are introductory material to economics, the following books have sparked my interest in the field:
The Elusive Quest for Growth (the troubles we have encountered in trying to develop struggling nations)
Economics in One Lesson (a succintly written book that covers basic economic fallacies)
Globalization and its Discontents (Yes, it is about Globalization... written by Stiglitz of the World Bank)
Hope this helps :)
Not up to Schaum's standards.......2006-02-02
This book is *ok*, but it is not as good as the other Schaum's books that I own (I own nearly 20 of them). I recomment this book ONLY if you are studying high school economics. If you are in college (or taking AP Economics or studying for CLEP), get the Microeconomics and Macroeconomics versions of this guide.
Disappointing.......2003-02-22
I used Schaum's Oulines to study for my accounting CLEP test, preparing for my MBA program. The Financial and Managerial Accounting titles were excellent. I have also used them to supplement my MBA texts in Operations Management and Financial Management. Overall, the series is lucid and easy to follow. I was expecting this title to follow suit.
Unfortunately, it did not.
The exposition is shoddy at best. Though I could solve the problems as they were given, I found myself struggling to understand economics. Since I was studying to CLEP test out of my prerequisite Micro and Macro Econ, I was concerned. After a few weeks, I purchased Harper Collins' College Outlines' Intro to Economics, and was pleasantly surprised to find that I could understand economics.
Buisiness Study Beginner from Korea.......2000-04-09
I am an old beginner in Economics. I just wanted to study to prepare my CMA certificate. Schaum's series are very popular in Korea, and maybe in the United States also for their selected many problems. That's why I chose this book for my preparation in Economics exam. Economics is very broad and practical studies. This book is written in 1995, 5 years ago from now. Someone feels it is too old to study. But I don't think so, because how much change in 5 years in Economics. The economy of a society is changing a lot in 5 years evidently but the Economics cannot be changed a lot in 5 years even in these E-days! I graduated from school longtime ago, and sometimes I was stupid in my school days because I just studied the text only without so many problems. I am now sure that the problem-driven study is the best way to conquer the complex theory. Good luck to you, and hope to find this book to help your understanding the Economics theory and extend to your real life.

Book Description
The Enterprise Culture of the 1980s helped transform economies of Western Europe, but left behind a legacy of stress, both for managers and shop floor workers. The cost to business is seen in absenteeism, reduced productivity, compensation claims, health insurance and direct medical costs, which in the US cost approximately $150 billion a year. Stress related absences are about ten time more costly in the UK than all industrial relations disputes put together, and sickness absence, premature death and retirement due to alcoholism costs a staggering £2 billion a year. The future is likely to get worse. As the pace of change increases and competition intensifies, organisations will restructure and the pressure on individual workers will increase. They can expect to feel less in control and more insecure in their work. This major work includes a collection of good practice examples and has been drawn together in a structured way to allow clear comparisons of a number of companies in the USA and Europe, ranging from the US Air Force, to an international pharmaceutical company (Zeneca), and a high-powered international retailer (Marks and Spencer). Human resource and occupational health professionals should find this an enlightening work, full of good examples to help them create a healthy environment for their workforce.

Entertaining, funny in parts but also quiet shocking.......1999-11-19
I found this book very entertaining funny in parts but I was also shocked that the Irish treated their own people in such a way they were bought like cattle at markets. The author gave a brilliant account of their everyday lives as he lived it with them. I look forward to the follow up.
