What is Accounting/Bookkeeping
Today with new technology most everything is computerized, including
ACCOUNTING and BOOKKEEPING. However, it is very important for us as BOOKKEEPERS to understand the whole ACCOUNTING SYSTEM and to be able to record and create accurate reports. BOOKKEEPING is recording and posting daily transactions, keeping all the records organized of a business and also preparing some financial reports at the end of a period. ACCOUNTING is planning, keeping, analyzing and interpreting FINANCIAL RECORDS. It is often called "THE LANGUAGE OF BUSINESS". It is a big part of the operation division in a company.
Every business is concerned with its FINANCIAL RECORDKEEPING. BOOKKEEPING is very detailed and requires a good organized system to perform an accurate job. Organization is a discipline and any body can discipline themselves to become an organized person.
A very small company may only have a FULL CHARGE BOOKKEEPER who handles just about every financial task, and use a CPA Firm for consultation and tax preparation.

About the Author
When I started my accounting/bookkeeping career years ago, I was desperately looking for a simple, short, and easy to understand bookkeeping guide and reference book to help me figure out how to put into practice the little a knew. I looked everywhere and to my surprise I could not find any. At that time I promised myself that when I was ready I would write a book just like the one I was looking for.
