Buy Low, Sell High, Collect Early and Pay Late: The Manager's Guide to Financial Survival

Description:

About this item:

Without sacrificing accuracy or relevance, here is an often humorous, sometimes irreverent approach to basic accounting, finance, and income taxes that shows you how to:

  • "Talk back" to your accountant
  • Answer the question "If we are making all this money, how come we never have any cash?"
  • "Win the tax game"
  • Borrow more money from your banker

If you need to know any or all of these "how to's," Dick Levin's practical book is a must. He begins with a basic review of accounting terms, takes you through analysis of actual finan-cial statements using industry ratios, answers your questions about where the money comes from and where it goes, explains why rapidly growing companies do not always generate the money they need to stay alive, and winds up giving you sound advice about income taxes.

Using an anecdotal approach, Dick Levin makes accounting, finance, and tax laws interesting and easy to understand.

Dick Levin, Ph.D., is Associate Dean, School of Business Administration, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He is also the author of The Executive's Illustrated Primer of Long-Range Planning and Strategy in a Nutshell.

It may be 40 yeears old but the basic axioms for running and managing a business still apply. However, the tax recommendations are out dated, as tax laws have changed signifigantly, and are outdated.

Of all the books I have read on finance, this is the one I remember best. Dr. Levin was a favorite professor in the Kenan-Flagler School of Business at UNC-Chapel Hill for being so down to earth with a topic that people love to complicate – MONEY. In this book you will find a quick, easy, common sense approach to managing business finances that is easy to absorb. The take-aways from this book are basic yet powerful, from “Cash is King” and “Follow the Cash” to “Buying Low and Selling High.”I'm so glad this book is back in print and offered at such a reasonable price.

I first bought this years ago. There is a reason Dick Levin has a following. Some of the prices are dated, but the concepts are timeless. Read it and profit. NOTE: There is another edition of the exact same book for MUCH less: Buy Low, Sell High, Collect Early & Pay Late : The Manager's Guide to Financial Survival

5.0 out of 5 stars Required reading. But at $4k? Get real!

Great book But $4000.00 at the lowest price on Bolo? Wow! Makes me thing the best thing to do is sell my copy on Bolo. Truth be told, I bought this in the UNC book store. It was the required text for Prof. Levin's class. I was an entrepreneur in those days and owned my own company. The book was pure common sense. But don't discount common sense. It is the rarest quality of all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not a Scam

There is bad information from a previous reviewer. This is NOT the book being touted by WSD. Do not buy this book, thinking it's the one with the "hidden plan for wealth", and buy low sell high investing secrets. That's a different book.This book is best described by the other reviewers here. It's a great book on finance, easy to understand.
