From the Author

"I think a lot of people get scared off when the topic of accounting comes up. That's a problem. As a business owner or decision maker you can't afford not to understand where your finances stand. I think this book will help a lot of people understand that accounting isn't as scary as they thought, and more importantly, I think this book will save businesses a lot of money."

From the Inside Flap

I've found that newcomers to accounting require a lot of encouragement. Business owners, as much as they would like to clarify their tax burdens and exert greater control over their business's finances, are reluctant to take the time out of their schedules to learn basic accounting themselves. That is a mistake.

One popular reason for avoiding accounting is a fear of math. People assume accounting requires the use of complex mathematics and that those of average or sub-par math skills will lose their footing. This is a misconception. Accounting is based on financial and organizational data rather than on exotic formulas or obscure mathematics. The reality is that accounting is the "language of business" and failing to understand that can have dire consequences for business owners.
