Accounting 101: A Preview

In this session, I provide a very short preview of what I aim to do in this class, and why I think less is more when it comes to accounting.

This is the most generous person in all of finance. An expert professor of finance, who lives in the real world, puts everything he does on the web for FREE for everyone to benefit. This is truly unique. Thank you so much Prof. Damodaran!

"I would say some of my best friends are accountants....but i'd be lying!" quote of the century 😂

Just when I was thinking that this 2020 couldn't get any crazier. What a positive surprise!

[frankie]

I love this guy. This is exactly what I need, just enough to get by and pass on the tougher tasks to a book keeper or accountant.

[iraaaaz]

Everything you could ideally think of.. is there in this playlist of Accounting 101! Hats off!

[Ruchika.Reddyt]

I've often questioned why people in the finance industry take accounting so seriously. I didn't want to, but you said "Enough Accounting", and there you go, sir. Many thanks for that!😃

[ricoronaldo]

How could you not love this professor? So damn candid 😉❤

[joshhouseham]

This is amazing! A true gift to every person who is interested in this kind of stuff. Thank you Prof! 😃🙏🏼

I just discovered Aswath. I've been working on my LLC's Accounting and Finance for two years; learning, and growing. The simplicity at which Mr. Damodaran introduces Account here, is like a breath of fresh air. I'm hooked. Diving in.

Thanks a lot Professor. Your passion for teaching makes our learning easier and more effective. And what's more, it is for free. Unbelievable

[GiuseppeVerarditrading]

Prof. Aswath, you are the epitome of what of what any Professor should be. Thank you a lot!

I salvage my basic accounting skills that I forgot from freshie years. Thanks.

[rosewellgh]

Big thanks here. Now it's time to learn what I should have done in my 20s.

[anargyulyumov]

Thank you very much! I have done your 2020 Valuation course but struggled with the accounting bits because of a lack of prior knowledge. This exactly a kind of accounting course I was looking for.

[alessandrolagonegro]

I would say the best professor ever, in the entire world.
