Master the essentials of double-entry bookkeeping with clear, practical instruction.
This concise guide explains how modern accounting concepts began, using a student-friendly approach to show how debtor and creditor relationships work in every transaction.
Written as an elementary course, it walks you through the two main paths in book-keeping—single and double entry—so you can see how accounts are organized and how profits, losses, and stock are tracked. You’ll learn how entries represent you, your customers, and your suppliers, with tangible examples that connect theory to practice.Beyond the basics, the book explains how to classify accounts, manage daily records, and interpret a Profit and Loss sheet. It also presents a practical method—including an abbreviated stock book—for tracking inventory and understanding year-end totals. The material is designed for learners who want a solid, usable foundation in bookkeeping.
- How debits and credits reflect your business picture in everyday transactions
- How general accounts are organized and used to monitor cash, stock, receipts, and expenses
- What double-entry bookkeeping reveals about profit, loss, and stock adjustments
- Practical tools like a stock book and a clear path from journal to ledger
Ideal for readers starting a practical course in bookkeeping or seeking a solid refresher in the fundamentals.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
