Numbers are the language of business. This book helps you make sense of them--fast. John Tracy is a master at pulling the meaningful figures out of the pile of numbers generated by the accounting department. Here he offers a quick review of both the basic financials as well as more advanced accounting tools, including

* Income statements and cash flow statements
* Budgeting and evaluating business investment performance
* Capital investment, operating ratios, benchmarking tools, and more

Readers will not only understand the theory behind all of these topics but see how to apply them in real situations.
