Jill wants to start her own business,but knows little about how to set up an accounting system or interpret financial information."I'm not worried about accounting," she tells her friends."I'll just hire a part-time bookkeeper to handle all that type of stuff,and focus my attention on what I like-finding ways to satisfy my customers."
