Alright, I'm interested in learning business calculus. Don't need this for my degree or anything, just looking to learn the subject. I'm searching for either a good book (WITH a solutions manual available), or a cheaper course.
If any of you have experience or suggestions, I'd appreciate hearing them. Thanks.

I was planning on taking a business calculus class at my college, but I ended up passing the Calculus CLEP and was able to drop the class.
The book the college class was going to use was:
"Schaum's Outlines: Calculus for business, economics, and the social sciences" written by Edward T. Dowling Copyright 1990 ISBN 0-07-017673-6 Published by Mcgraw-Hill
I have no idea how good it is at teaching calculus/business calculus, since I didn't take the course. If you end up wanting to purchase that book, I'll give you my copy for free if you pay for the shipping costs. I bought it used in my school's bookstore, but it's in really good condition. I do live in Hawaii so it might be cheaper for you to purchase it online depending on where you live.
Hope this helps.
