Accounting for Beginners: Learn easy and fast Accounting Principles
Numbers rule the world. And not just numbers but money drives the world.
But when money is represented in numbers in financial statements in the form of balance sheets, income statements, cashflow statements and various accounting ratios, most of us go blindWe just see gibberish and can't understand why some numbers are in one place and not another, how these figures come about, and how to make sense of these numbers to make decisions and much more.
The truth is; if you cannot read, understand and interpret financial statements, you are likely to go into the investment world blindly. Even if you want to venture into self-employment where you start your own business, it will be hard to know how well or bad you are doing in various aspects if you can't prepare, read, analyze and interpret financial reports.
The IRS will probably also be on your case for tax purposes.
And it is not just about running a business or investing; accounting as a profession is highly lucrative with the average starting salary of entry level accounting jobs being around $40,000-$60,000 and over $100,000 for accountants with over 5 years' experience.
