5 out of 5 starsA great book for preparing CPA exam! , 2007-03-20
This is really a great book for CPA exam. All the important accounting materials are covered in the book, and the wording is easy to understand. The part I like the most is that it has examples for each topic. I think it is a must have book for people who want to take the CPA exam. The book is not heavy, so you can carry it anywhere you want to go.

4 out of 5 starsGreat Summary for those with an accounting background, 2005-06-14
If you have an accounting background and need a quick reference guide to refresh your memories, this is a great book. The authors also provide practical tips in boxes to remind you what to watch out for in particular circumstances. In a nutshell, it basically cramps a few years worth of accounting courses into one very compact book.

For those of you who do not have an accounting background, this book will not be for you since it does not go into any great length to explain any accounting concepts. It basically assume you already know your stuff and simply needs a refresher.

5 out of 5 starsEnjoyable & Easy to Read, 2005-04-22
The Vest Pocket CPA is a concise and comprehensive guide that provides a quick reference for executives and accountants. The reference is updated for the recent changes instituted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Its question and answer format provides an indispensable aid and its examples add clarity to complex accounting issues. I found this book to be enjoyable. It is an easy reading book.

5 out of 5 starsSuperb Reference Book, 2005-04-11
The Vest Pocket CPA is a superbly written and easy to use quick reference tool. It addresses the common issues which a CPA or CFO might encounter in the ordinary course of a working day. It contains timely material and is a valuable addition to any accounting/auditing library. I liked it when I first obtained it, and find myself using it more than I thought I would.
