DESCRIPTION:
One of the most useful presentations of this topic ever. A Customer I have used this book to teach people with absolutely no training in accounting to understand financial statements. It appeals to non-quantitative and quantitative audiences alike. Non-quantitative audiences appreciate the plain language in which the book is written. Quantitative audiences immediately see how financial statements are laid out from a modelling point of view and invariably start coding up spreadsheets. People who need to explain anything related to financial statements should thoroughly read this book to see how clearly this topic can. Ian F Ripper said Fantastic Clarity. As an MBA student and a director of a small business, I doubt I have read a more useful book. Together with his 'Budgeting a la Carte', John Tracy cuts to the heart of company financials in a very clear and readable manner.
