DEPARTMENT: ACCOUNTING
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Babcock University’s philosophy is anchored on the harmonious development of the intellectual,
physical, social, and spiritual potentials of our students, inspiring stable and noble character needed
for effective leadership and service in the society.
This course is designed to acquaint students with more advanced aspects of financial accounting, at
a level higher than they were taught in 100 and 200 levels. It provides them with necessary skills
needed to prepare and interpret financial reports of group companies and specialized businesses
they might find themselves after leaving the University. It takes them to move out of the
miscellaneous accounting studied in the first semester to a more complex level with greater
emphasis on compliance with regulatory frameworks, most especially the International Financial
Reporting Standards.
