10 Accounting Terms You Should Know

Welcome to another episode of the UFD podcast. This week I'm diving into something that might make your eyes glaze over at first, but this stuff is GOLD for any entrepreneur who wants to stop feeling lost when their accountant starts throwing around fancy terms.

Accounting can sometimes feel like a foreign language. But how many times have you sat in meetings nodding along when you have absolutely no clue what's being discussed? That's exactly how bad business decisions get made.

So to help, I've picked out 10 accounting terms that I guarantee will come up in your business conversations, and I'm going to break them down in a way that makes sense.

These aren't just boring accounting terms that only your CFO needs to know, this is the language of business. When you understand these concepts, you can have real conversations about your company's financial health.

You'll know when someone's trying to pull a fast one on you, and more importantly, you'll be able to make better decisions because you actually understand what the numbers are telling you.

Don't let anyone bamboozle you with accounting jargon. These terms are your tools for understanding how your business really works.

If this helped clarify some of the accounting fog for you, I'd love to hear about it. And if you've got other terms that make your head spin, let me know - it might be perfect for a future episode.
