By ajgreen_sa@hotmail.com (London, England) - See all my reviews
Teach Yourself Basic Accounting is a well written, easy to follow book that tackles the task of teaching you how to keep financial records. Thought it focuses on small businesses own by one individual the basic principles are of great benefit to all of us. I having read the book and done all the exercises and feel it's only shortfall is being a bit to short.

5.0 out of 5 stars For an SAP module, this book is the best, 5 Feb 2006
I bought this book after I started an SAP module and couldnt get to grips with all the accounting principles. This book answered all the questions that had been preying on my mind since the course started. It is a godsend. Questions like how come money that has to be paid out is referred to as Credit, and money received is know as Debit, moreso when in real life, debit shows on statements when you OWE the bank money. All of these were explained and the exercises are brilliant. I will recommend this book for anyone need this knowledge for SAP purposes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't read a book by it's cover, 27 Oct 2005
By A Customer
I bought this book for a colleague to get a basic knowledge of accounting. I was surprised there was no glossary of terms. How can you learn accounting without knowing what the terminology means?

I was greatly disappointed by this book and wouldn't recommend anyone purchasing it for a beginner with no concept of accounting yet.
