Study Guide
Now available free in CengageNOWv2, the Study Guide allows students to easily assess what they know with a “Do You Know” checklist covering the key points in each chapter.
To further test their comprehension, students can work through Practice Exercises, which include a “strategy” hint and solution so they can continue to practice applying key accounting concepts.
Working Papers
Now available free in CengageNOWv2, students will find the tools they need to help work through end-of-chapter assignments with these working papers. The preformatted templates provide a starting point by giving students a basic structure for problems and journal entries. Working Papers are also available in a printed format as a bundle option.
Practice Sets
For more in-depth application of accounting practices, instructors may choose from among six different Practice Sets for long-term assignments. Each Practice Set requires students to complete one month of transactions for a fictional company. Practice Sets can be solved manually or with the Cengage Learning General Ledger software.
