About this listen

Three comprehensive manuscripts in one audiobook:

  • Bookkeeping: The Ultimate Guide to Bookkeeping for Small Business
  • Accounting: The Ultimate Guide to Accounting for Beginners - Learn the Basic Accounting Principles
  • Accounting: An Essential Guide to Learning Accounting Quickly

This audiobook is intended for people who want to know something about the fundamentals of bookkeeping and accounting without necessarily becoming a certified bookkeeper or accountant. Many people are in this position; small business owners, employers, employees, business owners, stockholders, investors, and many, many more. Most of these folks do not need a deep understanding of bookkeeping or accounting; they just need to learn what it is and how they should be using it. Just as important, they need to understand what bookkeepers and accountants are talking about in their reports. They must learn the vocabulary and the most important terms. If you are one of those, you have found the right audiobook for you.

Here are just some of the questions and topics discussed within this audiobook:

  • Bookkeeping Basics
  • What’s New in Bookkeeping for Small Business?
  • Managing Assets, Liabilities and Owner’s Equity
  • Using Ledgers and Journals to Track Business Activity
  • Bookkeeping When You Have Employees
  • Depreciation
  • Adjusting Entries
  • Making Sense out of the Financial Statements
  • Taxes for Small Businesses
  • Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
  • Income Statement
  • Measures and Ratios
  • And much, much more

Listen to this audiobook now to learn more about bookkeeping and accounting!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Any additional comments?

This QuickStart Guide Accounting for Small Business is just that. A quick start guide, while I wish Accounting could be taught and learned. It will give you a basis of the information that you will need to work on and things that you need to know.

This is a brief, yet concise overview of accounting practice for the small business. While this book is not a how-to for managing your business accounts, it will help you understand business finance. This will help you to ask your accountant the important questions, and keep your finances in order, enabling you to focus your attention on your business...

I wanted to learn more about bookkeeping, despite having a bookkeeper in order to better understand the financial information in my business.

I'm based in the UK and some of the information was tailored to US markets and businesses. Absolutely fine, but a UK version would be great.

It's very thorough and covers a lot, while also repeating core points to help the reader.

Small note to the audiobook company too, 11:18 into chapter 49, the reader makes a mistake and swears. Not a massive deal but editing should have caught it and I had kids in the car.

Thorough but designed for US markets

I am a complete novice so there was lot of new words for me but educational and worth the money.
I guess for a novice like me I will benefit more the 2nd or 3rd listen

It goes over the basic accounting terms and what you need to do when starting a small business. It is easy to digest and understand. I would recommend this to someone like me who needs a general review and update on the dos and don’ts of the monetary aspects of a new business.
