Softcover

The book is not hardcover. The cover looks different from the picture shown. Seems like an international edition. Even though I have not read the book yet, based on my limited experience the content should be the same as the US domestic edition. Would be better if this is indicated in the description (or I might have missed it).

Otherwise it's good.
Thanks.

The book is a requirement for the class "Planning, Control & Performance Evaluations." It gives a lot of real live applications of the theoretical issues like responsibility centers, profit centers, transfer pricing and so on.

Management Control Systems

I bought it because I needed it for my advanced accounting course. I like it because it goes into depth about different companies strategies and goals and the means that they take to reach them. Very educational if you ask me : )

Good case studies, ok content

Created: 01/10/06
The case studies are pretty good because they give you only the info you need - not a lot of fluff. The content is ok, but the example are not that good.
