...ACCOUNTING INFORMATION SYSTEMS: COURSE OBJECTIVES, DESCRIPTION, TOPICS, AND ASSIGNMENTS ACCT-5600 DR. NICOLAOU Fall 2010 COURSE STRUCTURE In the modern world, the majority of accounting entries occur electronically. Accountants and auditors store information in databases, managed by enterprise systems that have a set of controls to ensure that transactions and record keeping happen as expected. E-business Web sites handle transactions automatically, with the accounting data going directly into the necessary databases. The concept of a paper trail has become a bit of a misnomer; today, because of accounting information systems, there is often no paper involved at all; however, it is important to establish the flow the data in different areas of the organization, or audit trail, so as to properly exercise internal controls. AISs help in this purpose. At the outset of this course, you will learn the basics of accounting information systems and business processes. Next, you will learn about database management systems, and the design of various database models. Finally, you will learn about how to use internal controls effectively for risk management, as well as the requirements for business reporting. After completing this course, you should not only have a clear idea of how accounting information systems work, but you should also be prepared to design and configure them to meet the record-keeping and risk management requirements of the organization. In addition...

...Management control systems Solutions to Chapter 16 questions (a) See Chapter 16 for the answer to this question. In particular, your answer should stress: (i) The need for a system of responsibility accounting based on a clear definition of a manager’s authority and responsibility. (ii) The production of performance reports at frequent intervals comparing actual and budget costs for individual expense items. Variances should be analysed according to whether they are controllable or non-controllable by the manager. (iii) The managers should participate in the setting of budgets and standards. (iv) The system should ensure that variances are investigated, causes found and remedial action is taken. (v) An effective cost control system must not be used as a punitive device, but should be seen as a system that helps managers to control their costs more effectively. (b) Possible problems include: (i) Difficulties in setting standards for non-repetitive work. (ii) Non-acceptance by budgetees if they view the system as a punitive device to judge their performance. (iii) Isolating variances where interdependencies exist. (a) See ‘Planning’, ‘Motivation’ and ‘Performance evaluation’ in the section on the multiple functions of budgets in Chapter 15 for the answer to this question. The answer should emphasize that the role of motivation is to encourage goal congruence between the company and the employees. (b) See ‘Conflicting roles of budgets’ in Chapter 15 for an explanation of how...
