Product Description
As the long-time best-seller, Garrison has helped guide close to 2 million students through the challenging waters of managerial accounting since it was first published. It identifies the three functions managers must perform within their organizations—plan operations, control activities, and make decisions—and explains what accounting information is necessary for these functions, how to collect it, and how to interpret it. To achieve this, Managerial Accounting, 12/E, focuses, now as in the past, on three qualities: Relevance. Every effort is made to help students relate the concepts in this book to the decisions made by working managers. With insightful chapter openers, the popular Managerial Accounting in Action segments within the chapters, and stimulating end-of-chapter exercises, a student reading Garrison should never have to ask “Why am I learning this?” Balance. There’s more than one type of business, and so Garrison covers a variety of business models, including not-for-profit, retail, service, and wholesale organizations as well as manufacturing. In the twelfth edition, service company examples are highlighted with icons in the margins of the text. Clarity. Generations of students have praised Garrison for the friendliness and readability of its writing, but that’s just the beginning. Technical discussions have been simplified, material has been reordered, and the entire book carefully retuned to make teaching—and learning—from Garrison as easy as it can be. In addition, the supplements package is written by Garrison, Noreen, and Brewer, ensuring that students and professors will work with clear, well-written supplements that employ consistent terminology.

From the very beginning, I ordered book for my class which was started on July 7. But I didn't receive the book around the date so I had to purchase one. I contact the sender, someone told me that I can get refund after I receive the book. But until now I didn't receive the book (even I receive it,it was too late) and contacted back to sender, who didn't respond to me and didn't refund me payment.
I'm very disappointed about the sender's behavior and I hope the sender can contact me as soon as he/she can to refund me the payment!!!

Came when it was supposed to, in good condition. No problems. Would use again.
A higher level cost accounting book May 27, 2008
It is a higher level cost-accounting book. It is a detailed book but would be better if it had answer guides in the back for some questions etc.
The book does have elaborate examples before the question section though, which is beneficial.
Very informative Accounting textbook May 1, 2008

I really learned a lot from Managerial Accounting. The text is very succinct and helpful, if a little too detailed. There is a wealth of practice problems available, even if you sometimes have to dig through them in order to really get to the helpful review. The book would have benefited from having the answers to the practice problems included, but the review problems at the end of each chapter are super helpful. Finally, the real-life business insights are the best I have ever read in a textbook and really made it enjoyable to read.
