Reddit mentions: The best managerial accounting books

I personally didn't like the Note Pirate or Tony Bell videos. They were just not clicking with me. I found the Managerial Accounting for Dummies book a great resource (you can find it free if you dig a little) and I also have had great luck with the Schaum's Outline books and they have one for Managerial Accounting.

If you DO like videos, I highly recommend Farhat's accounting videos. He helped me tremendously (first videos to ever do that!) in Intermediate Accounting. He has some playlists for managerial accounting (not the CCP ones) as well. I recommend checking those out.

What areas did you score lowest in your coaching report?

I found that the OA was harder than the PA. For example, in all my pre-assessments, I was scoring 100% on CVP but on the OA, I scored a meager 37.50% which means this was much more challenging on the OA than the PA. The questions were far more complex and involved.

Really know the segments dealing with overheard and how to calculate it based on various factors.

I also highly recommend the videos from the CMs that cover select chapters (1-5, 7, 8, 10, 11) as they cover the majority of the exam and all the major concepts.

The LearnSmart modules are really good at representing the spectrum of questions. I think the assessment actually matches LearnSmart modules better than the pre-assessment.

Let me know if you have other questions. I had no issues with this class and did enjoy it though Cost and Managerial Accounting was a different story! :)

There is a book/PDF that might be helpful.

You should be able to find it cheaper somewhere... I got it for free through my companies CPE online website, we were able to download it as a PDF. Essentially you will be the controller.

The list keeps going on and on and on. If your textbooks only cost $100, then that's great for you, your state, and your college bookstore. The costs are higher for fundamental courses in fields taken often, I assume, due in part to simple supply/demand, and due in part to the publishers' editing requirements.

Meanwhile, I had to pay $151 for a fairly thin paperback and its accompanying DVD for a sign language course because there were no good sources that sold both aside from the bookstore itself. Amazon sold the book and the DVD, but purchasing used would have had a combined price higher than purchasing new at the school bookstore, along with a several day long mailing time.

  Make sure you look through the table of contents before purchasing...it might not be what you need.

$5 thank you

Not sure what's idiotic about the standard Cost Accounting text. Was it the Horngren one?

But it's expensive. You can torrent a few cost accounting books. They don't change much from edition to edition. Literally anything with cost accounting as the book title will be enough for you

What is it exactly that you are not "getting"?

Is it that you don't understand the differences and distinctions in practice and purpose between financial accounting and management accounting? Or ?

Not sure what you're looking for... I mean if you are looking for basic books on the subject -- maybe you should start by reading the textbook for the class? If you need additional resources, then Google along with Google Shopping & Amazon are pretty much "no-brainers" to use.

Or what... are you looking to "cheat" and have someone do your homework for you?

But seriously, if you're really in THAT sad of shape, then -- rather than defraud future employers and F' over your future coworkers with your incompetence -- maybe you ought to consider changing your major to something you can handle?
