Thank you very much!
umm…well, I'm not endorsing this particular website because I found that you can purchase the same(similar) product elsewhere but there appears to be little difference in cost. Hopefully Jeff won't mind my posting this CE link:

Once you've paid, the book takes about 3-4 business days to arrive from Durham. I could have gone cd and no book I suppose but I had some space on the bookshelf and trees can be re-planted so I don't feel too awfully guilty about leaving it on a shelf if I never look at it again.
That said, I could have easily finished in far less time had I not been interested in reading and making the best of all the material provided. I ‘spose when I drop 130 dollars on a book I cannot help but give it a thorough once over.
My accounting 450 course in school was heavy in ethics and honestly, far more informative that this text….but whatever.
One could easily skim the material for test answers without reading all the examples and scenarios they provide.
The text comes with a code to enter on-line. I guess they give you three chances to score 90 or better. Should you “fail” 3 times, they've enclosed a paper “Scantron” form to mail in your grades for a “fourth” try.
I took it once. I missed 2 questions…I should have read the questions a little closer.
I read the book thoughtfully. Frankly, I gave it more credit than it was due after wracking my brain on CPA exam review materials I guess I expected this ethics thing to be a much bigger bear than it was.
It took me two…maybe 2.5 days to take it all in and read into it all the scenarios I could envision them possibly asking me to make tricky questions.
In hind sight, I would have read through the questions at the end of the book FIRST…then read the material.
