Easy to Read, But a Few Typos
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.

Condition: Beyond Used
Would have bought ‘new’ or digital copy if they’d accurately disclosed condition of book. Not good at all.

The worst math textbook I have ever had to use
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.

Nice title, zero content.
I have bought this book in order to use it for my 1st year course in Licence MASS (french Bsc of mathematics and economics). It was a pure waste of money. The level is so low : this book is aimed at people who do not know what a percentage is. If you want a book somewhat above zero level, you'd better take a book about management of the supply chain, such as Operations Management of Krajewski and Ritzman (Pearson).
