Business Math Is Easy

BUSINESS MATH IS EASY provides an overview of selected business math topics. Topics have been selected to support vocational bookkeeping, business programs, & other short courses in vocational schools & elsewhere. BUSINESS MATH IS EASY is also excellent for self-study or to support a home teaching program. Each topic is explained simply & clearly. Answers to all problems are provided. This book reinforces math topics which benefit from repetition within a business program; strengthens the teaching of topics not fully covered in such programs; & presents topics which are not practical to present in detail elsewhere. For example, payroll information is normally adequate in any competent bookkeeping program. Only a short overview is presented here. However, information on handling commissions is rarely adequately discussed, so the emphasis in the payroll chapter is on commission pay structures. Covered topics include: Payroll in Brief; Inventory Valuation & Cost of Goods Sold; Depreciation; Cash Discounts; Due Dates; Simple Interest; Maturity Value; & Julian Dates. This is an excellent companion to MATH IS EASY, by the same author, which reviews basic math topics. The gentle reading level & informal typestyle add to the learner friendliness of this book.Scarpitta, Stephen is the author of 'Business Math Is Easy', published 1992 under ISBN 9781878038111 and ISBN 1878038117.
