Mastering Bookkeeping,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mastering Book-Keeping: A Complete Guide to the Principles and Practice of Business Accounting (Paperback)
There was no reference that the book was written in England. I would not have purchased it if I had known. I guessed at what some of the terms meant as our bookkeeping format and terms are different. I also did not like dealing with VAT, )value added tax) as my bookkeeping does not use it. I was disappointed that the book was not written for the U.S.A.

Covers all the basics of bookkeeping,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mastering Book-Keeping (How to) (Paperback)
What are the basics of 'double-entry accounting', and how can it be done? This totally updated 6th edition of a popular study covers all the basics of bookkeeping, from handling petty cash and using spreadsheets to account for VAT taxes, a British tax system. While there are a few principles such as VAT which are UK-specific, plenty of solid and easily-transferred basics will easy cross country lines to appeal to a world-wide audience. Mastering Book-Keeping is highly recommended, especially for those relatively new to the complexities of corporate bookkeeping in multinational companies.
