This book is a must read to educate yourself

If you are looking to learn Financial Accounting from basics, this book would be a great starting point. It is easy to read and covers a lot of basic information. Once you have read it, I would suggest looking more into your niche and seeing the laws on taxes.

The book is worth listening for my career.

Not everyone went to college and these days the information is not always available in public schools. It would be nice if the information was dummy down just a tad for people who did not take accounting or other finance classes.....

Nice Starting book to learn Financial Accounting.

The author described financial accounting terms well and when you are finished with this book you should have a middle level understanding of how to manage financial accounting of your own. I also like that it explains it very easily. I am an audibly learner and this helps me to understand by actually listening the data.

Useful Book

I bought this book to brush up on how to create financial statements. What a pleasant surprise this book was! Not only are things presented in straight forward terms; the case study examples enable hands-on learning.

A must read for anyone

Thanks to this book, I am in a much better position in to understand the financial accounting very well. I am lucky that I read this when I did because in 6 months it might have been too late. This book offered so many tips that getting my books straight has not been as overwhelming as I was expecting it to be!

This book is well prepared.

This book is well prepared. I would like to say accommodating, in many ways. This book covers the outward of what business owners need to look for. We need to know how to balance our balance sheets and how to find what is missing.

Good Narration, topic explained well.

It's definitely helpful having the PDF. You'll find the information much more useful if you read along especially with the formulas and ratios that are explained.

I would also like to recommend it.

The book is good indeed but there are still some things that I need to look into that I did not fully understand, but overall this guide really helped to give me a leg up in starting my business. I would also like to recommend it to every new business owner and financial accountant.

Narrator is way too distracting

Good information, but the narrator ruined it for me. I found myself continually focusing on her rather than the material.
