Fat Elk Software announces a new single-entry small business  bookkeeping
program, the TAXACCTS Small Business Journals.

TAXACCTS has been designed and programmed especially for  non-accounting
trained small business owners who's primary bookkeeping  requirement is
profit and loss and the resultant tax liabilities.

TAXACCTS is not "just another accounting package."  The program is ready
for immediate use. Accounts are pre-numbered and  pre-titled for income,
expense and purchases.

The most commonly used income and expense accounts are permanently  titled,
but a type-over utility permits the user to customize  generically titled
accounts. 

A SPECIAL CHART OF ACCOUNTS permits easy record keeping for  tax-sensitive
expense such as business use of a personal vehicle and  office-in-home
expense, owner's draw and/or capital accounts, etc.  Optional use of
special accounts is permitted.

TAXACCTS reports a formal income statement, including a true and  complete
cost of goods sold, and various summary and detail reports.

The program provides simplified payables and receivables handling and 
clever but simple special monitoring capabilities.

TAXACCTS is a program that any user can master quickly. The program is 
entirely menu-driven, and there are no function key or double-key 
combinations.

The user's guide is only about 120 pages, but most of the  documentation
relates to bookkeeping requirements. This information is  presented
tersely but clearly in a manner that a small business owner  - or non
accounting trained employee - can understand and use  correctly.

The program requires an IBM compatible computer, 256k memory, 720k  disk
space and any continuous feed printer.

The suggested retail price is $75.00. Fat Elk Software is offering the 
program through direct sales ( Via a demonstration version on  electronic
bulletin boards - check demoware on pc-link) at the  introductory price of
$37.50 through December 31, 1992. Special  wholesale discounts are being
offered during this period.

Principal partners of FAT Elk Software are Quentin L. Cooper and James  A.
Saxton.

After a lengthy career in insurance management, Quinten Cooper spent 
almost ten years doing professional tax consulting, during which time  he
was enrolled to practice before the Internal Revenue Service.

His contact with numerous small business owners and his efforts to  help
them find ways to keep credible profit and loss records showed  the need
for and inspired a program that any small business owner can  learn to
use.

Jim Saxton has a varied career in computer and peripheral technical 
engineering and customer service. Jim re-programmed and enhanced 
Quentin's original program to marketable condition while retaining the 
ease of use parameters of the original design.
