A clear, easy-to-understand explanation of key financial accounting basics.

The world of accounting can be intimidating. Whether you’re a manager, business owner, aspiring entrepreneur, or taking a college course in accounting, you’ll find yourself need to know the basics…but baffled by complicated accounting books.

Using the world of a child’s lemonade stand to teach the basics of managing your finances, this book makes a dry subject fun and understandable. As you run your stand, you’ll begin to understand and apply financial terms and concepts like assets, liabilities, earnings, inventory and notes payable, plus:

Interactive format gives you hands-on experience

Praise for The Accounting Game:

“The game approach makes the subject matter most understandable. I highly recommend it to anyone frightened by either numbers or accountants.”
-John Hernandis, Director of Corporate Communications, American Greetings

“Fantastic Learning Tool…Don’t let this book title fool you. It is not an oversimplification of accounting and financial principles. It is, however, a serious and very effective examination of a very small but progressively complex business. There are not many books available on the market that make a complex and dry subject understandable and even fun. This book successfully does just that.”
-Amazon Reviewer
