In many years of having had accounting terms explained to me and glossaries listed, I have never seen such clean, concise and effective examples and explanations of the differences between oft-confused terms. Do you have a cheat-sheet glossary of (official) accounting terms in your own words somewhere?

I used to work as a management consultant for senior executives of tech companies. I learned the essentials of accounting by going through this workbook on a five-hour flight: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0132744376/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b...

It's filled with simple fill-in-the-blank examples, but the repetition really helped it stick.
