yeah, im in financial accounting... its like a 201-207 course or something... supposed to be an intro course, but i don't understand it [/quote]

yeah, that class totally skewed my sense of the words "debit" and "credit"...one transaction is a debit to this account, while the same transaction is a credit to another account...

[/quote]

did you already get through the class ?

well do u want my help or just wanna be a smartass?

ill take any help i can get.. reading the book, taking notes, and even using the ******* cd that came with the book doesn't seem to help... im bout to start trying the bookwork (even though it takes hours to do) to see if the hands on stuff will help.. I got all A's in all my other classes which are calculus based econ courses.. it sucks knowing a "simple" *** class like this can **** you over...

what would be the best way to study for the following: statements of cash flows... ratios.. i.e. current, quick, ROE, ROI.. stuff like that ? easiest way to derive the information to determine those ratios
