• Horrible Introduction For Dummies...
25 January, 2010
If you've picked this book up, it's probably because you want to learn how to make your personal finances or your own small business organized and professional. However, this book glosses over everything from income tax returns to stock investments to end of year profit and loss reports to what CPA's do to what financial fraud is to what computer software you should use... and does so without really going into detail for each of them. For example, Tracy touches on what records you should keep if the government audits your business... but all he says is that you should keep records. No Duh!

• Very Good Book
12 September, 2009
This is a very comprehensive book for beginers who want to understand financial reports and other accounting aspects related to a business. The author has written it very well without too much technical details but just enough for a new comer to understand the basics. After reading this book many financial/accounting terms will sound familiar when you read articles in business magazines and newspapers. If you are a new manager like me and want to learn the basics of accounting this book is a good buy.

• Anyone Can Be An Accountant
16 September, 2009
This book is a great tool for those who get scared when they hear the word "Accounting". It has a great way of explaining what is needed in order to set up your business correctly, in a down to earth way. I found the terminology is easy to understand. It is great for just learning the process or to use as a reference. It is a great tool to have for those moments when the mind goes blank when an accounting procedure needs to be done.
