I am really sorry I never rate this low but,frustration from calculations that are unclear, is exhausting. This needs revisions. Very vague explanations. Should not have to spend over 4 hours to try and figure out one aspect of the problem.
It was a class textbook. We didn't do the exercises in class, but having them available along with the answer key allowed me more practice. I got an "A" in the class. There are a few typos, however.
Merchandising Mathematics for Retailing has been little to no help for me in my buying class. I am pretty good at math and I actually enjoy it but this textbook makes me hate it. The problems and formulas are worded in a way that are really confusing. For example, there is two different formulas in the book one for average commission earnings per hour and one for average earnings per hour and there's a problem that asks for average earnings per hour but what they're really looking for is the average commission earnings per hour. As a result I wasted a good amount of time trying to figure out how to use the wrong formula on the problem. If I had not checked the answer at the back of the book, I would have never known I was doing it incorrectly. This happens throughout the text. Also there are problems where they never even explain how to solve them. This leaves me struggling for hours trying to figure out how to do one problem instead of just teaching it to me in the first place like textbooks are meant to do. I am extremely frustrated with this text, I have to use it for the entire semester and the problems are just going to become more difficult to understand.
It contains lot of helpful knowledge needs for retail, but it also has so many wrong answers and numbers, and I think a math textbook should always have right numbers. It confuses students. Explanation was also very confusing.
This book sucks, has tons of mistakes and doesn't explain anything to you.
