Definitely recommend

Bookkeeping and accounting have been two ideas that I regularly try to resist off.
This step-by-step guide was surprisingly straightforward to follow.
You can tell this author (Greg Shields) loves what he does.

I hate accounting

I hate accounting, and I’m having a really hard time understanding the concepts being taught; however, this is the best book on the topic I’ve heard so far.

Good Audible Book

Any additional comments?

Accounting and bookkeeping can be difficult and this book sheds some light on what needs to be done.

Good One

Any additional comments?

I think this is a good book for newer businesses. It helps understand the different aspects of accounting. I guess everyone is on different levels in their understandings of accounting terms.

Learned more about accounting then I had in class.

This is a collection of teachings. I thought the book ended, 'was it 3 times?', several times before its final ending. There was one surprise and was the best part of the listen.

A Perfect Book

A perfect bookkeeping and accounting reference book for beginners. So easy to understand and full of useful information. A bargain! This book alone will not make you an expert or to be able to handle your own accounting, but I do recommend this book as a guide to get you going.

good book

Lots of good information for new American businesses. However I did not like that it was read by a British gentleman. Too many pronunciation variances made it difficult to follow along at times. I had to rewind a few times just to figure out what he was saying. Also there were a lot of references to PDFs that were included with this book. However it's difficult to pull out the PDF when you're listening while at work or driving. So it made it difficult to follow along there as well.

Good Basic Book

This book goes over basic structures of businesses. One thing I learned that is so valuable is to keep business and personal financials separate. If you're just starting out, you'll want to read about the different roles accountants play in businesses.

This book is only okay.

This book is written as if you already know the basics.
Presented examples and key terms are not explained as it should be; it is just supposed you understand.

Solid Introduction

This is a solid introduction to accounting and bookkeeping. I would recommend this small business owner to help the understand the accounting practices for their small business.
