Very informative book! It goes into detail on the proper way to handle noncash contributions which is the information I was seeking. It is also written in "understandable" accounting language. I would recommend this little book packed full of valuable information to any church financial administrator. The CD-ROM with all the forms (including a budget form I was looking for) is a valuable addition also.
