Qualified CIMA accountants would already have covered the contents in one form or another, and students will do at some stage in their studies.
In my view you'd better off buying a proper Excel reference book, such as the Excel bible, which provides more in depth coverage of the Excel application, and refer to your CIMA course books if you need review specific management accounting techniques.
However, I suppose that this book could at times be a useful reference book for non-accountants who occasionally need to flirt with the wonderful world of management accounting and prepare the odd spreadsheet model? But for management accountants - part or fully qualified - your money would be better spent on other books.

I fail too see how this book can be advertised as 'useful to all management acccountants both qualified and still in training' and how CIMA can publish such a weak and overpriced book. If you are interested in basic statistical analysis or financial theory you would be better off going to your local library and loaning an old text book on the subject. This book provides little practical Excel knowledge and what it does provide is very basic. As an alternative I would recommend 'Practical Financial Modelling' by Jonathan Swift as a practical guide to structuring financial models and 'The missing manual' by Matthew MacDonald as an excellant Exel manual.
