PART 1
INTRODUCTION
The topics of the course cover financial accounting concepts. Management students need to
understand financial data and coordinate their decision making by using such data developed by
accounting executives. This requires an understanding on how financial statements are prepared
and the assumptions in their preparations rather than a mastery of accounting techniques.
CLO 1: Students will be able to prepare financial statements - income statement, balance sheet
and cash flow statement. (PLG1)
CLO 2: Students will be able to evaluate the business context and identify appropriate
accounting
policies related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation, valuing PP & E and
depreciation.
CLO 3: Students will be able to analyse published financial statements and related disclosures.
(PLG 2)

POLICY ON PLAGIARISM:
All students should be familiar with the Institute’s policy (PGP Handbook) on academic integrity.
Plagiarism of any kind and to any extent will result in the assessment as ‘zero’ for that particular
component, with no further opportunity to improve. Repetition of the offence would result in
failure in the subject.
