This innovative series module on Business Combinations covers the basic principles as thoroughly as any text would. However, because of the unique structure of the system for consolidation eliminations that this module incorporates, the complexities require only simple modifications to the basic system. An instructor may be able to reduce the amount of class time devoted to business combinations thereby allowing more time on in-depth explanations.
