VERY VALUABLE SOURCE FOR QUICK LEARNING, September 28, 2000
I found this book to be very valuable in looking up terms I had forgotten when asked by my assistant who is taking accounting classes to become a certified accountant. As the company I work for is a small business, often I take for granted the accounting principles I use daily for over 30 years. What they may mean to a person who is learning from me and how I can teach her is different than what is taught in many classes today. This book is a quick reference to explain what I am teaching her, plus what she is learning in class. I purchased this book for my assistant and after reading through it I ordered another for myself. I highly recommend this book to have in every office and for any student. I have found no other book to be so concise and helpful for quick reference. You will be glad you have this book in your library of accounting materials.

Organized in a simple and direct manner, this book has proved to be an invaluble reference. I am in the process of writing a procedure manual for the AP department of a large public school district and this book gives me exactly what I need to impart an accounting vocabulary to my readers. I recommend this book to anyone who works among, or has frequent contact, with financial professionals. Once you know what the word means, the rest falls into place.

This little book puts almost everything at your fingertips: formulas, examples, abbreviations, acronyms, not just definitions. A must have for any accountant or anyone studying the subject. I showed this to my old accounting professor and he wished this was his.

If reading this does not convince you our budget and probably government needs a serious overhaul, then you are best off staying in your fantasy world. Just remember it's the clown's we sent to Washington that are doing this, and we have no right to bitch until we demand they begin to represent the US, not their affluent lobbyists.
