Master double-entry bookkeeping/accounting in one short sitting —around 2 hours.
Ideal before you start any accounting course, for on-the-job training or to nail down a skill you may feel insecure about.

Filled with examples. Double- quiz lets you practice as if you were on the job.
Section 3: Recording journal entries. Pick up the simple rules of double-entry bookkeeping. Which amounts go in which accounts and how to show this. Filled with examples. Double-quiz lets you practice until you know it cold.
Section 4: The general ledger accounts. Shows you what a ledger account looks like on a computer v. on paper. Explains how journal entries you learned go into the accounts. Now learn how to quickly find and retrieve financial information from the accounts—such as:
- your company’s cash balance
- your company’s sales for any month
- which bills your company has paid or not paid
And other financial information. Double-quiz lets you practice finding and retrieving financial information fast!
Section 5: The income statement and balance sheet. Snapshot of the financial statements and how they are compiled from the general ledger accounts.
Section 6: The accounting cycle. An overview of the accounting process from start to finish.

I bought the paperback book. I am a new independent bookkeeper and was nervous about my skills. I had plenty of resources for studying but for some reason it still didn’t help me feel like I understood it. This book helps break double-entry accounting in a simple way and the quizzes helped reinforce that I was understanding the material. I feel ore confident in the services I provide now.

The course was great, the only thing that needs to be better is the feedback on the test for the association certificated. I would like to know if I passed it or not in order to prepare better for the national exam.

I could never wrap my head around debits and credits and when to do either. I can’t believe how this book broke it down into steps that I could understand. Something that has intimidated me for so many years is now clear as a bell. Thank you!!!!!

I’m using this book to help new data entry staff members who may not have any formal education to get the basics down of debits and credits. This book does a great job of simply explaining and demonstrating the how’s and why’s of bookkeeping entries.
