We address various aspects one stimating the magnetocaloric effect from magnetization measurements, and the use of a Maxwell relation in first-and second-order phase transitions, including( a) the use of magnetization as a thermodynamic variable in an inhomogeneous situation (structural or chemical distributions, magnetic domains) and (b) non-equilibrium conditions (irreversibility) on first-order phase transitions, including mixed-phase conditions. We find that the Maxwell equation or any other methods such as area differentiation should be used with caution and not included at a out of equilibrium, which can lead to spurious results. The use of methods for modeling the magnetic entropy change of first- and second-order magnetic phase transitions, such as Landau and mean-field theory, can be helpful to better understand the nature of the commonly found anomalous peaks in magnetic entropy change and their physical relevance.
