Hello..

I'm a CA Final student..nd presently m taking Sanjay Agarwal classes for Management Accounting..In his first class he referred two foreign writers for costing - Colin Drury and Horngren.

I want your advice whether dese books are useful and which writer's book is more beneficial.

hi veny......

before buying any other book you must solve ICAI's module, practice manual ,Rtp..........

you must understand the standards of icai first after that u can go for any other book if u feel that there will be enough time in your hand as you have to solve sir sanjay aggarwal's mat also.

hi veny...

sorry for the late reply....

i don't have any knowledge about the book of Colin Drury or Horngren but i do respect DR PC tulsian .

as i had studied his books in PCC and now i am following his "OR" book which is very good for self study.

costing book for FINAL of DR PC Tulsian is also available .

question paper format for FINAL is : 45-50 marks (costing problems) + 15 marks (OR problems)+10 marks( OR theory including odd theory ) + 15-20 marks(costing odd theory)+10 marks(costing normal theory)=100marks

so you have to prepare for each of the above topic separately and in 50 marks costing problem there are many small topics in the module which you have to cover .

so prepare your strategy accordingly......

THANKS,

SUVAJIT
