Great!, but...
Very easy to follow and understand, using visionary methods to easily remember the content. Only nitpick is that a lot of the figures are missing as they want you to work it out yourself as you go along, with the answers at the back. This is really annoying and feels like you are revising for a test. Apart from that, it’s a good read for anyone who wants to grasp the bigger picture and fundamentals of accounting and how this plays a role in the running of a business.
