(3 Credits)
Instructor: Marlene M Greene
Overview
This course is an introduction to financial accounting concepts and financial reporting, with the focus being on how decision makers analyze, interpret, and use accounting information. Emphasis is given to how accounting measures, records, and reports economic activities for corporations and on the relationship between accrual and cash flow measures in interpreting accounting information.
This course teaches how to understand the financial health of an entity. An entity can be an individual, a partnership, a corporation or a business. Accounting uses a specific language and specific rules. FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) a non-profit organization, governs the world of accounting. Their main purpose is to create and maintain a specific set of principles called GAAP ( Generally Accepted Accounting Principles).
The Bible is the ultimate financial guide. It speaks more about money than any other subject. Proverbs 22:7: "The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is a servant to the lender". Accounting, if applied correctly, will help keep one from being a servant to money. 1 Corinthians 4:2 states -- Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful. The study of Accounting will aid in an entity becoming a faithful servant.
