Very informative and easy to understand

Love the simplicity and knowledge. I highly recommend this book for beginners. Makes accounting seem like 5th grade math even though it is complex.

I found this somewhat helpful as an overview to the subject. I now have a 50,000 foot view of what an accountant does and the terminology they use. I’m new to the subject, but even so, felt the book could have been half the length because the content is light.

Informative

There were some general spelling errors, but I feel more comfortable diving into a study of accounting than I was before reading.
