      I always find it hard to wrap my head around the fact that expenses go on the same side as assets. After all, expenses don't sound like something good, like assets. But I think of it that way: If you have more expenses then this means your operations are also going up. If you provide online services, for example, and your electricity bill goes up, that means the probably it was due to more clients and more services provided. So your expenses went up but your revenue also went up. So bottom line, expenses are a good thing (of course if they provide you with some benefit and are not just a waste of money). Not sure if it is exactly a hack but that's how I think about it.

    I seriously made this poster before a job interview. I had "passed" a job interview with the CEO of a company and then he had his CPA firm interview me via phone call. I had pinned this up on my wall before my phone interview. Every question had something to do with how I would put something on the balance sheet. "If you took out a loan on a new car, how would you record it." This hack literally got me a job!!! Thanks!!

    Hi James!
    I wanted to thank you for your amazing videos that really helped me in my Accounting I course. I'm about to begin Accounting II and I wanted to know if you could post a video on amortizing bonds?
    Thank you & all the best!

    You explain it with such an ease, thank you. Can you please do some videos with examples on FIFO and LIFO?
