Customer Reviews

Informative
Good detailed book for those new to book keeping or for those working as a book keeper with a lot of unanswered questions. Goes through everything you need to know when running a small business. The questions are easy to go through and there are a lot to give you practice on how to get it right. The book mostly teaches manual skills although computerised layouts and systems are explained. An easy to read workbook and a handy reference book too!

Excellent book
I bought this book a few months ago as I am starting the AAT foundation course in September. I know a bit about accounting but was clueless about book keeping. I found this book really helpful and easy to understand. It has given me a headstart for when I do start studying. And I would recommend this book to anyone who is studing for an accounting course or setting up their own small business.

Good for revision
I got this book as it was suggested by my teacher and I have to say that as a suppliment to the course material I found it useful. I have to also stress that I had already studied Bookkeeping before so this really was revision for me. It is a book that I can look up something quickly for reference.
