- Intermediate Accounting by Kieso. Or you can watch Farhat on YT if you learn better by hearing.

It comes with solutions to the end of chapter problems which I found really helpful.

If you are in Canada, Intermediate accounting by Beechy beats Kieso every day of the week. Kieso’s book is a convoluted mess compared to Beechy’s where everything is laid out perfectly, you go concept by concept and there is an example after almost everything.
- Schaum’s workbooks are invaluable! I used to tear out chapters at a time, take then to work, and read, highlight, and solve problems throughout my shift. These books have solutions, so many example problems, and practice examinations!
