Excel for Accounting & Finance

[rconverse]

Hello,

Could anyone recommend a good Excel book for Accounting and Finance professionals? I checked this site but didn't see one by Bill (which I found surprising).

Thanks!

I suppose that it is surprising, given Bill's background in finance.
The closest that I can find to such a book from Bill is Excel for Auditors.
You can 'look inside' it at:

I'm planning to be a small business owner soon, and I'm wondering if I should handle all my finances in Excel, or should I get a different accounting software?

Also, has anyone heard of a book that teaches the basics of accounting in Excel?

Well it turns out I didn't have to handle any of this myself, since my cousin works as an accountat at [deleted] I managed to get him to do pretty much everything for me.

So you'll be dealing with spreadsheets for you accounting records? I think there are quickbooks that you can use for compiling your financial output for your business. Unless you have knowledge on excel formulas like macro, you can use excel for your transaction records.
