Week 10 Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? 
To be honest, not much stood out or surprised me in this chapter. A lot of this was thoroughly explained in the three accounting courses I took. It's always nice to have a refresher though as these ideas were hard to grasp.

2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
 The simple linear progression to prepare sales forecasts caught me off guard a little bit. I usually always enjoy math and especially, algebraic equations. Maybe because my thought process this semester has not included it at all, I was not processing that information the same.

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?
 Do you think it's imperative that business owner's understand all these aspects of finance thoroughly to be successful such as cash flow statements and Production Budget worksheets?

4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?
 There is nothing I really disagreed with as much as I wish the author found a friendlier way to teach these topics. They're extremely dry and can be easy to lose attention.
