Bookkeeping, Budgeting & Business Taxes: The Three Bs of Business - Paperback

by James E. Wiley Cpa Mba (Author), Anthony T. Peak Cpa Cia (Foreword by)

Bookkeeping, Budgeting & Business Taxes is a practical, approachable guide to the three pillars of financial management every successful business depends on. Bookkeeping provides the detailed recording of transactions that define an organization's financial position, budgeting transforms that information into a roadmap for planning and growth, and business taxes rely on both to ensure accurate reporting and strategic decision-making.

Written for individuals and small business owners who feel overwhelmed by financial terminology and competing advice, this book bridges the gap between complex accounting concepts and real-world application. Drawing on years of professional experience as an accounting professional and certified public accountant, James Wiley offers clear, actionable insights designed to reduce stress, prevent costly mistakes, and uncover missed opportunities.

Rather than an academic textbook, this is a user-friendly manual focused on practical use. Readers will explore accounting fundamentals without getting lost in technical jargon, learn how effective budgeting can reveal untapped resources and drive financial goals, and gain essential tax-planning strategies to minimize liabilities and maximize savings. The book's logical structure allows readers to build knowledge step by step or reference specific sections as needed, with easy-to-read charts included for visual learners.

Whether you are an entrepreneur, finance professional, or business owner, this guide is designed to help you gain clarity, confidence, and long-term financial understanding.
