ECON 099 - Principles of Accounting

FC SSCI QFR

4 credits
Accounting is the creation, reporting, and interpretation of financial information. The course will show how accounting data can be used by people outside an organization - for example, investors and regulators - to evaluate its financial performance. It will also show how accounting data can be used within an organization as a planning and management tool. The course will be particularly useful to those interested in careers in business, economics, arts and non-profit management, law, and government. Students cannot earn credit for ECON 099 if they have taken ECON 109.

This course is appropriate for new students.
