Today we live in a world with financial demands on our time and our thinking. Never has it been more important to you and to your family to understand “where you stand” in your finances. What do you hope will be your financial future? At last there is a book that shows you how to “set the record straight.” How are you doing, dollars and cents-wise? You have to understand your finances in today’s constantly changing money world, much more than your parents did (or didn’t). With companies “out- sourcing” jobs to foreign countries, where do you find a job? More and more of us are setting up our own small businesses and/or consulting enterprises to make a liv- ing. Our motto should be “keep the books!”
Doing business requires a vision of what you are contributing to the services and/or the products for your customers and your community. To achieve that vision requires a detailed plan including your financial goals and the resources you will need (human and financial), what geographical area you will serve, as well as what human and fixed assets are required. Now plan your sources of funding, both equity and debt. You know you must hire employees and motivate them to achieve the goals you have set. Payrolls and benefits have their own measures, which are described in this book. Another section of this book will walk you through the process of leading, motivating, and measuring your “associates’” productivities, the records required, and how to file their reports. (Never call them “employees” anymore.)
It was my privilege to co-author a book about the Federal Reserve, our nation’s central bank, with Lita Epstein: The Complete Idiot’s Guide to the Federal Reserve (Alpha Books, 2003). We translated “fedspeak” that we all see in our newspapers into English. Lita’s accounting expertise was very contributory to our communicating what all that accounting jargon and data about the money supply and interest rates really means. Once again, in this book, The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Accounting, Lita Epstein, along with her co-author Shellie Moore, make a potentially confusing topic accessible to everyone
