Accounting is the language of business!
Accounting is the practice of recording business transactions. Because the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires all businesses to accurately record and provide proof of each transaction, the positions of Bookkeeping and Accounting are guaranteed employment opportunities. Concurrently, all businesses function with some type of accounting system, it is therefore always to your advantage to understand the accounting process and terminology at any level. Accounting is a skill -- with it, you increase your own value.
Here are some of my favorite websites -- check them out and get familiar with the terminology.
