An excellent overall audio guidebook for everyone

Financial statements are reports that summarize how your business is doing financially. There are three main types of financial statements the balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

Its one of the great guide

Very simple descriptions, but the audio-book holds enough detail to upsurge your knowledge level about the issue.
Seems great for small business holders who have no hint about the audio-books.

Gives a fine overview

Let's face it: Accounting is pretty boring to non-accountants. I was looking for something a little more high-level, perhaps, but this seemed to give a fine overview. The reader was very good.

Enjoyed the audio book

If you’ve just started learning it is very helpful and very well organized. I would not recommend if you’re already seasoned in accounting.
