This review is from: Where Did The Money Go?- Easy Accounting Basics for the Business Owner Who Hates Numbers (Paperback)

As a business owner of multiple companies, I knew I needed to understand the numbers. But, I have always struggled with the terms and just what the numbers really meant. This book helped me read the numbers and understand the terms in a way that allowed me to deal with the "real world" financial data.
