Just reading the intro and I wish someone had commented on this before I’d bought the book…
At the back of the book, you will find answers to approximately half of the Review Questions. The answers to the other review questions (indicated by the letter ‘A’ after the question number) are only available to you from your teacher or lecturer.
I’M STUDYING THIS ON MY OWN, SO WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT THIS???

It is as it says, it is like a brand new book, no tears, no damages at all, really satisfied.

I am giving 2 as i was taken aback with amount of glaring errors and poor format of the book exercises. There were simpler methods that could’ve been discussed e.g. for goodwill calculation pg 290 the same process can be done simpler via using 60% of equity of subsidiary instead.
The tone and language was ok but the amount of back book exercises errors was wasting extra time trying to figure out the wrong figure either in statement provided or a completely wrong answer at the back of the book or the fact there was incomplete information in the question provided e.g. in exercise 18.3 there is no mention of current assets increasing by 60% and it is inconsistent with examples.
Thankfully the examples were correct and sufficient for understanding however the author at times went on his own rambling of mental calculation which could’ve been laid out in a better manner, as an example the chapter 10 pg 278 gives mental calculations which were unnecessary as same information within a paragraph would have been better utilised in spacing out and showing calculation more vividly and concisely instead of going up and down the paragraphs. i felt Alan was more trying to impress me with his math skills than anything else.
At times the rows of the items in the financial statement were not aligned properly e.g. current assets was a row up whilst the value was a row down!
I need this book for consolidation chapter as it is quite good, but from the look of serious errors I am dissuaded to use the book for other chapters. I will use another book after practicing cash flow from this book.
Perhaps volume 1 is better which i can’t comment as of yet.
