Featured Review
"I found myself in need of reviewing many topics in accounting and accounting principles used in the US. I looked into many accounting courses, but I found AccountingCoach to be the best and most reliable accounting resource ever! I like it because it is very well organized and user friendly. I was able to easily find the topics I needed and understand perfectly what was required, as the material provides thorough and detailed explanations with examples and practice quizzes to test your knowledge at the end of each topic. I love that it covers all the information needed in accounting and finance, with hints and reasonable financial analysis when it comes to financial ratio studies that would interest anyone working in those industries. I am really grateful to have AccountingCoach! Thank you, professional gentlemen, for creating such a great and trustworthy source of accounting information. It has made my life easier! I highly recommend it to everyone in the field." - Roula K.
