Business

A supplement to Cheeseman's Contemporary Business Law 3/e, or other Cheeseman texts.

• The CPA Review Guide covers all topics tested on the Business Law section of the CPA Exam. It is coordinated with Cheeseman's Third Edition of Contemporary Business Law, and can be used with Cheeseman's other business law texts as well.
• Unlike other business law CPA review guides, the coordination of the review material with a specific text makes it easy for the CPA exam candidate to find more detailed information when encountering a topic area needing more thorough study.
• Each chapter in the review includes specific exam tips, a listing of terms to know, and sample questions, most of which are from past CPA exams.
• The Review Guide is complete enough to be used without a Cheeseman text, but its unique value and benefits come from being used in conjunction with a Cheeseman business law text.

• How to Use this CPA Review Guide in conjunction with the text.

• Components of Each Chapter.

• AICPA Content Specification Outline.

• Format and Grading of the CPA Exam.

• General Business Law Study Suggestions.

• Suggestions for Taking the Exam.

• Suggestions for Around Exam Day.
