Dear all, I teach a course in Corporate Valuation Theory that is taken by students from a variety of disciplines. Many of them have not studied accounting, and while I devote two lectures and two homework assignments to the subject, it is impossible to convey the depth of this vast subject and for students to internalize why double-entry accounting is so extraordinarily powerful.
I currently use examples built in Excel but am exploring the possibility of moving to GnuCash, which allows its users to think in terms of double-entry accounting using debits and credits, and to make entries using these terms. It allows students to create different types of accounts (asset/liability/equity), make journal entries for them using proper accounting terminology, and then create financial statements. Question: Do you know of a simple accounting primer that uses GnuCash and has many examples and some problem sets as well? If so, I would be very appreciative if you would share it with me. Sincerely and with many thanks in advance Thomas Philips _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
