Give your students more “I get it!” moments with the Student Learning System.

Students understand, or “get it”, right after a problem is demonstrated in class but often struggle to complete similar problems on their homework hours later. In order to ensure students don't fall behind, Accounting provides its winning combination of student textbook features, study resources and online homework system that make up the Student Learning System. Overall, the Student Learning System works together to provide students with “I get it!” moments anytime, anywhere.

In the new edition, Charles Horngren and Tom Harrison have invited Suzanne Oliver, a loyal Accounting user and community college instructor, to share her extensive insight with their already solid author team.
