    It is a very good reference book to have on hand. Wouldn’t be without it. However, sometimes it’s had to follow the transaction entries.

    I like the book, I use it often, but it is truly only for those who know what they are doing. Someone just starting bookkeeping would not know what to do with that book.

    Once I got past the confusing format, I really appreciated the thoroughness of the Encyclopedia. My background is in the Not-for-profit community and it has been a great help to me in dealing with unfamiliar situations.

    It has every journal entry you’ll ever need and is indexed so that it is easy to find with a very good description. I recommend this for any bookkeeper or accountant. It’s GREAT! Now if I could afford the other study workbooks to become certified I’d not hesitate to get them.

    I’ve glanced through this book a few times, but never had an opportunity to use it in a workplace setting. I do look foward to using it as a work reference in the future.

    I was really looking forward to this publication and believed it would be very helpful. Unfortunately this book was too complicated and cumbersome to use as an effective tool. I tried several times to use it, even tried referencing JEs that I was familiar wi, but still found it of little use. It sits on the bookshelf just like new. I feel it was $79 that went to waste.
