The right formula

I've been struggling to match figures on a particularly gnarly reconciliation for some time now. Too many numbers, too many workbooks and it just seemed impossible. Luckily with a little help from a colleague I managed to make some progress on it today.

Life can be really difficult when it appears as if there is too much detail to make head or tail of the problems we face. I think it all boils down to finding the common denominators and keeping the matching as simple as possible.

If we take the 10 commandments for example. They are all simple clear commandments. They become difficult to live by when we try to find the grey areas and in this case there really are none. Don't complicate life by trying to fudge truth. Live simply and the numbers will match.
