Very detailed book.

Even though business owners may not be accountants, they must become knowledgeable in accounting to be successful. Small business owners need to get a grasp of their companies books and not just their checkbooks.

Packed with great information

Great book. Very simple explanations, but the book contains enough detail to increase your knowledge level about the subject. Great for small business owners who have no clue about the books. It is also good as a refresher for seasoned businessmen and women.
