Title: Radical Accounting- A Way out of the Dark and Into the Profit
Author: Madeline Bailey
A beginner's guide to business accounting and computer accounting software, Radical Accounting is an excellent reference tool. It is a step- by- step guide to take the business owner from being frustrated and confused by business reports to understanding financial statements and profit margins. The book explains the process extensively, but in layman's terms.
Whether you intend to do your own bookkeeping or simply want to understand the reports that your bookkeeper and/or accountant produce, this book will assist you. Chapter nine "Your Filing System" will greatly assist the organizationally challenged.
Chapter by chapter, the author explains the language of accounting and how it applies to your day-to-day business transactions. You will begin to understand and request more and more information about your business in order to increase your profit margin. You will no longer be confused and frustrated by reports that are foreign to you, now you will be an educated businessperson who has the facts that you will need to succeed.
Several Quickbooks software tips are included throughout, however the book is not limited to this software program. This book is not associated with nor does it recommend one software program over another. The Quickbooks program is simply used as reference for some of the chapters. The book uses United States tax references but is still useful in Canada and other countries as an accounting guide.
Author Madeline Bailey is a software developer, a consultant and a business analyst.

GET THIS BOOK, ITS SHORT AND SWEET!!! September 30, 2007

I recently started a pedicab company down in Austin Texas. I started mainly focusing on getting the business up and running, without much thought to accounting, while looking around the local bookstore I noticed this book and started reading. Its a book to read start to finish. Once your done you will know exactly what you need to do in a straight and easy to understand way. The only downfall of the book is that I wish there were more Quickbook tips. If you are wondering how to get your business into a situation where you can easily understand and communicate what is happening with all aspects of your company finances then GET THIS BOOK.
I also recommend this book to anyone in school taking accounting classes. I gave it to an employee who is taking classes here at the University of Texas in Austin and it helped him out a bunch, he is getting much better scores, because the knowledge gained from this book is tremendous and in just a nice short package, its convenient for even the busiest of people.
Go get it and read it, it WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER!!!!

I found this book very useful. It is easy to understand. There is not a lot written for small business people that has so much good information that is so easy to make sense of. I used the book to change our accounting structure and it all makes much more sense to me now than it did.
Getting rid of the paper! February 2, 2006

I used QuickBooks at my previous job but it was all setup for me. That owner retired so I got a new, better paying job, but I thought I might be in over my head. The owner was disorganized with papers everywhere. He didn't seem ready to want to get rid of all that paper.
I thought I'd give this book a try. I went directly to the section titled, "From Disaster to Organization in One Day Straight," in the chapter on "Filing Systems".
What a big help this was to me! The whole book is great! Spending $20 to keep my job-the author would call that profitable! I call it wonderful.
