    Though I have only used the encyclopedia once, when manually journalizing entries for inventory for an eyelash extension professional for the first time, I found it to be very helpful. I am glad that I bought it and I am certain that I will find myself relying on it again in the future as I grow my bookkeeping and tax preparation/consulting business.

    Works well for most bookkeeping, but does not distinguish well between C-corporation with shares and S-corporations, nor cover cash/tax basis accounting (used by a number of very small businesses with under 10 employees).

    This is an excellent book that I have purchased before and found very useful. I do believe that it would be the best tool available if the following changes were made:
    1. Make a PDF copy of this for reference and portability.
    2. Add Templates that could be used with Microsoft Office and other apps for workpaper integration.
    3.Allow collaboration with team members to reference materials in the book. One book could have many licenses for team members to work from.
    4. A Digital copy of this allows for a quick seamless updates as they are made available.

    Respectfully,
    Michael A Davis Consultant

    I used the Encyclopedia of JE reference book to look up sales of our company’s Note Receivables with Recourse. Very helpful, however I wasn’t able to locate how to JE the payments out to the bank, reason I rate the book 4 stars. I’m still not if I need to setup a liability of Notes Receivable and post the payments there?

    This is a real timesaver at my office. I do bookkeeping for clients in different industries and do lots of year end adjustments. This book gives me the sample journal entries for every possible scenario which gives me confidence in the service I provide for my customers.
