BUACC1506 ACCOUNTING & BUSINESS DECISIONS
"This course enables students to develop an understanding of accounting and develop foundational knowledge and skills in preparing and using such information in business decision making. The initial focus of the course is on the nature and function of accounting within various contexts and organisational settings. Foundational transaction analysis skills are then developed for recognising, measuring, recording and reporting accounting events. The course subsequently examines how accounting information is used to guide business decision making through a consideration of topics such as the analysis of financial reports, cost-volume-profit analysis, budgeting, capital investment strategies and business financing. Ethics and corporate governance are studied to provide an ethical perspective on the use of accounting information. Each topic is introduced by a critical review of foundational concepts and theories that are then discussed in line with generally accepted accounting principles and practices."
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,663
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
