Don't bother--save your money!
20 Dec 2000
Format:Paperback
I had given 5 stars to "Valuation," but I feel that this workbook is practically useless for its price. The problems in this book are not very challenging; they merely require echoed answers instead of questions providing in-depth analysis. Common questions include: "Name three issues in valuating X company" or "Name three reasons why X is preferred over B." These are simple questions one could easily answer by taking copious notes. I had expected much more challenging questions from the workbook, but I was sorely disappointed. My advice: Buy "Valuation" but avoid buying this book.

Valuation Workbook (3rd edition)
25 Oct 2005
Format:Paperback
I was hoping the workbook would have more practice exercises revloving around the manipulation of financial statements. Instead, it was heavily multiple choice and short answer questions. Not exactly helpful for someone trying to learn by practice instead of information memorization.
Great help for Valuation of Companies, very didactic

I needed to know how to valuate companies, and this book really explains detail by detail how to do it.
