Two audiences, opposite vocabulary, same product. Per-question pages for business owners and accountants — outcomes first, mechanism second.
Accounting
The Yoke Ledger reference tells you how the General Ledger mechanism works. This section answers a different question: what does any of this mean for me?
Two audiences land on this surface. They want the same product framed differently:
- A business owner wants outcomes — "did I make money?", "where does this transaction go?", "what do I send my CPA?"
- An accountant or bookkeeper wants conventions — how to map an existing Chart of Accounts, what audit trail is preserved, how to close the books, how to export cleanly to QuickBooks.
Pick the angle you'd rather read in.

For business owners
Outcome-driven accounting pages for non-accountants — did you make money, where transactions go, month-end, sending to your CPA, and a plain-English vocabulary.
For accountants
Practitioner-pitched pages for bookkeepers and CPAs — mapping a client's CoA, posting rules in accounting terms, close cycle, audit trail, exporting to QuickBooks.
