Study of increasing globalization of business and capital markets, emphasizing the quintessential position of International Accounting as a discipline. More than before, multinational corporations and many of their stakeholders continue to use cross-border financial information in their strategic corporate and investment decision making. International Accounting as a vehicle for international financial reporting has become indispensable in such a global context. Topics in this course, including international harmonization of reporting standards will enhance students' understanding of the dynamics of financial information that crosses national borders.
The first of two courses that provide a comprehensive treatment of financial reporting topics. The course focuses on the conceptual, procedural, and regulatory issues involved in preparing and understanding corporate financial statements.
