GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

The profession of accounting is evolving in response to changes in business, economics, technology, and workforce diversity. These changes are in turn influencing what we teach and how we teach accounting.

Accounting in Action addresses these changes by bringing together the real worlds of business and accounting and connecting them to accounting concepts, principles and practices. The course supports either of the major approaches to accounting: principles of accounting, with a heavier emphasis on finance financial and managerial accounting, with an equal emphasis on both.

This flexibility helps you prepare students appropriately for a variety of settings, such as manufacturing, merchandising, and service organizations. Each package is designed as a two-term course and goes beyond procedural and technical topics to include a broader view of real-world accounting applications.
