Welcome

Ever notice that the world is full of experts who have never actually done what they are "experts" at?

Many a business professor has never actually managed a business. Most business courses stress defining business terms but never actually teach the concepts of running a business.

This blog hopes to teach some of the terms and, at the same time, give some examples and lessons on running a business.

There will also be reviews of books on business listed here. Sometimes companies give me books to review. Regardless of where I get the book to review, I will give my honest opinion. If I was given the book to review I will always disclose that in the review.

I seek to start posting on 02 January 2012. Some of the posts will be recycled from some of my other blogs.

The reader should know that there is no one “Right Way” to conduct business that will apply in all situations. This blog is meant as a place to start. It is hoped that you will perform further research and consult professionals experienced in your particular business before making any important decisions.

Assets


Assets
What is an asset? Basically, an asset is anything a company owns that has value. Cash that the company has on hand (whether in the bank or in the office), accounts receivable (this is money that is owed to the company and is likely to be received in a timely manner), real estate (buildings and/or land), equipment and inventory are all considered to be assets.

It is usually assumed that an asset has value enough to be sold in the event that a company has to liquidate its assets. That is, if the company had to raise money whatever it is claiming as an asset would have enough value that a buyer could be found.
