Basic Accounting Simplified is the "safety net" every accounting student should have in order to be successful in this field.

That makes it easier to grasp the essentials of accounting. Then the middle, the journals and ledger, are integrated and clarified, so the whole makes sense. The result is a faster, much clearer comprehension that demystifies in an engaging way. This primer is clear, concise, and full of useful illustrations.
