This subject exposes students with limited work experience to the nature and use of accounting information rather than the processes of accounting. Students learn to understand accounting information and to appreciate its uses from a decision-making perspective. However, the subject does provide a sound grounding in the application of accounting techniques which can provide the basis for future accounting study. The subject covers both financial and management accounting. Financial accounting topics include basic financial statements, analysis and recording of transactions, and the underlying concepts and procedures used in financial accounting. Management accounting topics include cost constructs, product costing and information for planning and control.
