Essentials of Accounting by Robert N. Anthony

Got recommended from a McKinsey consultant. Read it in 3 days. Understood every basic items in financial statements to build a model. Nailed nearly all accounting questions in my IB interview. This book did save my life as a starter in Finance.

What makes this book different from any of your university textbooks?

  1. Interactive Q&A comes along with new knowledge
  2. 15 case studies to revise after each chapter
  3. Concise and buzzword-excluded

Main content

  1. Nine concepts that govern all accounting
  2. The nature of financial statements and its relationship
  3. Fundamental analysis ratios

It gives me even more than a 2-month module in my university. Highly recommend for everyone who wants to take a quick look at accounting.
