Financial Accounting
		                               (Fall 2003)

Our goal is to help you develop a framework for understanding financial, managerial, and tax reports. The course goal is divided into five subordinate challenges that can help you organize the way you learn accounting:



  1. The record keeping and reporting challenge

  2. The computation challenge

  3. The judgment challenge

  4. The usage challenge

  5. The search challenge


The course adopts a decision-maker perspective of accounting by emphasizing the relation between accounting data and the underlying economic events generating them. Restricted to first-year Sloan MBA students.
