BUACC1507 Accounting Fundamentals
This course provides the foundation financial accounting knowledge for students intending to major in accounting, and is a pre-requisite for second year accounting courses. It can also complement the studies of students of other disciplines who wish to develop a soundly-based knowledge of accounting in addition to their primary discipline. Practical and theoretical exercises are used to gain a rigorous understanding of accrual accounting and to master the credit-debit notation in the context of sole traders, partnerships and companies.
