This dictionary provides a basic vocabulary of terms used in accounting,
from personal finance and investments to company accounts, balance
sheets and stock valuations. It is ideal for students of accounting and for anyone who needs to check the meaning of an accountancy term, from
people working in businesses who may not be professional accountants to
translators or those for whom English is an additional language.
Each headword is explained in clear, straightforward English and
examples are given to show how the word may be used in context. There
are also quotations from newspapers and specialist magazines. Sample
documents and financial statements are also provided.
Thanks are due to Hannah Gray and Sarah Williams for their invaluable
