Financial Accounting: acctcoach.com or principlesofacct.com? - commdiver - 04-30-2011
I am thinking of purchasing one of the set of PDFs from either AccountingCoach.com or PrinciplesOfAccounting.com. Both seem to get good reviews on CLEP forums. The PDFs from AccountingCoach.com cost $35, while the PDFs from PrinciplesOfAccounting.com cost $23.95. The former website seems to include more material, however, which I may use (they have some stuff for accounting classes I will be taking later on).
Which would you purchase? Thank you in advance for any help

That seems to be my understanding as well. It seems the stuff can be viewed online for free, but you have to pay if you want the PDF. Would you pay for it? It would be nice to have the PDF, but $35 is a decent amount of money.

I read accounting demystified while on a plane and the elliptical. It was an easy to read starter text that explained the fundamentals in a very digestible format. After reading that I took the accounting I and II classes on straighterline.com and passed them with As in about 5 days.
