    Hi

    I would suggest Frank Wood’s Bookkeeping and accounting 7th Edition or Franks Wood’s Business Accounting 1 – 11th Edition. (IFRS Edition).

    I have just completed ‘Introduction to Book-keeping and Accounting’ course from Open University- UK and I found these two books are great help.

    Cheers
    Ronnie

    Ronnie’s right – I have the 7th edition not 6th!

    Hi Nora

    I agree with mohib and *starfish* – you can’t study for these exams without a text book – the passcards really are, almost for last minute revision – you need to know the topics in a lot more detail to understand the bigger picture. Depending on where you sit your exam, I would buy the corresponding text i.e. at a BPP centre, but their material. This is important as BPP for example will cover things in a certain manner and so will the exams…if you struggle with the books – which when you learn from home, is understandable – there’s a really good book called Frank Wood’s Bookkeeping and Accounts published by the Financial Times (6th ed) – and it breaks a lot of the concepts down into a more digestable language. It’s also excellent for the double entry part of the syllabus, as this is the most important part to get your head around!.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi Rabaai, thanks for coming back to me – unfortunately because it’s home study – you can’t buy the courses notes unless you physically attend a BPP course 🙁

    However I came across an excellent book on accounting and bookkeepin by the Financial Times, which is really helping!

    Have you taken you F3 yet?
