Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good start but disappointing
Review: In the first 2 chapters the authors do a good job of explaining why variable costing is better than full absorption costing. Thereafter the book fails to add much more than that. I learned in university that variable costing is better than full absorption costing, so this is nothing new - what would be more useful would be ways to use both systems simultaneously, seeing as full absorption costing will be with us for SEC and IRS reporting purposes.
Great start, but left with a feeling that I hadn't really learned much in the end.

Summary: Good, but not what the title suggests.
Review: This book was the best summary of the Thinking Process I have yet read, but it's title suggests an accounting focus. The accounting focus lasted just for the first section. The real value of this book was the case studies where they discussed some of the benefits and pitfalls experienced by some companies that implemented TOC ideals.
