...of accounting goes back thousands of years and affects individuals, not-for profit organizations, large for-profit corporations, government entities, nonprofessional and professional sports teams, and many other entities. Understanding how to create and use accounting information is therefore critical to your future success as a strategic thinker and leader in any organization. Our focus is for-profit businesses. What is the objective of the course?

Because of the tremendous depth and breadth of financial accounting, it is not reasonable to expect you to master the subject. We will not even try to fool ourselves that this will occur. Instead we will set attainable goals of gaining an appreciation and...
