Financial Accounting

In Financial Accounting, students learn the basic accounting principles, preparing them for a career in business or as the first course in their preparation to become an accountant. This course starts out teaching with a focus on small, sole-proprietorships providing a service, and gradually layers accounting practices from the most basic to the more complex accounting practices recommended for large companies.
