Publisher's Synopsis
Accounting is the process of recording financial transactions pertaining to a business. The accounting process includes summarizing, analyzing, and reporting these transactions to oversight agencies, regulators, and tax collection entities. With an understanding of the fundamental concepts and principles of accounting, you can make more informed decisions, contribute to strategic conversations, and build and run businesses.
Accounting is the most fundamental part of any business. You need to have a grasp of its concepts and workings before venturing forth in any enterprise. This book provides that knowledge quickly, clearly, and directly in less than 100 pages.
Your intention to learn is the first step. Purchasing this book is the second step. Journeys start with initial steps. But they are of no use to you unless you read it, comprehend the ideas, internalize the concepts, and put them to work. By keeping the book short and succinct and focusing on the big picture and the important concepts, my hope is that you will find it a manageable task to read through it first quickly and then maybe again more thoughtfully until you own this subject. It's a five to ten-hour commitment. You can do it in a week!
