\nvery few people who drive understand how a car runs. they just know you have to turn the key or push a button and occasionally step on the gas or brake pedals. no one knows how a dentist works and few know how starbucks makes a latte. and certainly if you knew how a hot dog was made, you likely would never eat one again. so why do we need to know how bookkeeping works? the average person doesn\u2019t need to know and probably neither does the average business owner or manager. but i believe every accountant should understand the flow of transactions, and a problem today is that most of the present generation does not. bookkeeping is a record of the flow of transactions.<\/p>\n
