BUS103: Introduction to Financial Accounting
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

Accounting is the language of business. If you are learning accounting for the first time, embracing its foundational concepts may be challenging. Mastery of accounting primarily rests in your ability to critically think through and synthesize the information as it applies to a given situation. You should approach the learning of accounting the same way you would approach learning a foreign language; it will take time and practice to ensure you remember the concepts.
Many sub-disciplines fall under the umbrella of accounting, but this course will focus on financial accounting. Accounting as a business discipline can be viewed as a system of compiled data. Data should not be confused with information. In accounting, data is the raw transactions or business activity that happens within any business entity. For example, if someone uses $30,000 of their savings to start a business, that is a point of data. Now that you have this data, what will you do with it? Of course, the answer is accounting!

This course will introduce you to financial accounting in preparation for more advanced business topics. Recording financial information in a standard format allows managers, investors, lenders, stakeholders, and regulators to make appropriate decisions. In this course, we will look at the Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows, and Statement of Shareholders' Equity. You will learn how to compile and analyze these financial statements from the accounting data you have created.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Artificial Intelligence and blockchain technologies are revolutionizing how various industries work, including the accounting industry. As the tools of the trade grow smarter, what will the future landscape of accounting look like? And where will accounting grads find a place in it? Researchers address these and other questions in a recent review published in the journal IEEE Access. AI and blockchain technologies are already having a big impact on how accounting firms run. Deloitte has created a voice analysis tool that monitors customer interactions and identifies high-risk interactions through natural language processing. PricewaterhouseCoopers has an entire AI audit lab designed to improve audit quality and operational efficiency, and Ernst & Young has developed Blockchain Analyzer, which enables in-depth reviews of cryptocurrecy transactions. Accounting students are recommended to hone their programming skills and stay abreast of emerging technologies to thrive in this fast-changing environment..."
