Government Accounting  April 5, 2011
by
Rating StarRating StarRating StarRating StarRating Star

Government and not for profit accounting is one of the most confusing things I have ever seen or read about. I now know where my tax dollars are going. There are too many steps that the government takes just for even simple journal entries. This accounting is too confusing as well as cost accounting.
