Product Description
COST MANAGEMENT emphasizes that changing conditions often require a change in systems. Emphasizing this point stresses the dynamic and exciting nature of the field. By taking a systems approach -- one that first covers functional-based cost and control and then activity-based cost systems -- students understand how to understand and manage any cost management system.

5 out of 5 starsMake sure that your buy the correct edition!!!! , 2008-01-25
A new 6th edition of Hansen has just published. This has a green/black cover with an aircraft cockpit on it (ISBN 0324559674). If you still want to buy the old 5th edition (why?), only buy the one with a black/brown cover showing people around a table. Make sure you buy the correct edition. I have just has two buyers buy the wrong edition because they didn't check the ISBN or edition details correctly.

5 out of 5 starsTO BUY OR NOT TO BUY; THAT'S A QUESTION!, 2007-03-16
The text is pretty comprehensive and covers the subject of Cost Management broadly and deeply. Since there are not too many textbooks on the topic; therefore, authors are admired for their devoted efforts they put into. The publisher should understand the matter inside the book and manage the cost of this book and make it afforable to the students.

For students, it's tough beginning before learning "Cost Management", the book incurs too much cost and puzzles students how they should manage their own budgets. Anyway, it might be the strategy of the authors or the publishing company to begin the lessons from the sale. As one scholar said, "Experience is a tough teacher, which gives exams first and teaches lessons thereafter."

As far as the contents are concerned, the book is highly recommended, but at a lower price. Thank you for your time for reading this review.

1 out of 5 starsFilled With Useless Information, 2006-09-01
If you want to wade through useless babble to get to the actual cost accounting, go at it. However, you'll probably buy this book anyway if you have an unscrupulous accounting professor who received a gift basket from the publisher.

In other words, it's useless to the student. However, I'm sure its very profitable for the publisher and the authors.

3 out of 5 starsFOR THE PRICE, THIS BOOK SHOULD BE BETTER, 2006-03-23
This book should have been written better when you consider its expensive price tag. However, the review excercise at the end of the chapter is extremely helpful. I would recommend the book if serious improvements are made. Overall, it is not that bad.
