Accounting Comes Alive: The Color Accounting Parable is the story of how an MBA learns the principles of accounting and business from his grandfather. You ll read the book in an evening and come away with a solid grasp of the essential concepts you need to know. The power of the Parable lies in a new way of presenting the subject graphically. The system called Color Accounting uses diagrams and logical color to make obscure ideas come to life. The plain English distills makes the learning quick and easy for anyone. 
Perfect for beginners and if you learn well through story, the Parable clarifies issues many graduates still confuse. For example, it reveals the four uses of debit and credit, where many people think there are just two. 
 Part 2 of the book introduces financial analysis. It is valuable for beginners and intermediate alike. It powerfully illustrates five potentially fatal mistakes that business owners make, using real-life financial statements. 
The book accompanies a separately available, more extensive reference e-book called Accounting Comes Alive - Introducing Color Accounting. (ISBN 978-1-4507-6961-7)
