It’s a simple textbook and it’s fine.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Felt a bit like “explain it to me like I’m five” which was exactly the right level for my premorbid understanding of finance.

My favorite part was the chapter that went full mask-off about just how much all of this stuff is divorced from actual value… literally titled “Inventory Costing—The Accountant’s World of Make-Believe”.
