Bachelor of Business

Fundamentals of Accounting

Currently over 100 countries have adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), or their equivalent, to prepare financial statements by listed companies. A sound knowledge about IFRS is essential for accounting professionals to prepare comparable and understandable financial information to users. This subject focuses on applying IFRS and Australian accounting standards to account for complex practical issues. This includes applying accounting standards involving measurement and professional judgement to recognise common revenue transactions, analyse business acquisition, and preparing consolidated financial statements.

Financial Accounting and Reporting

This subject provides you with an understanding of accounting process and application in the business environment. The subject covers the conceptual framework underlying accounting practices and the application of accounting information systems in the process of recording and reporting business transactions. After studying this subject, you will be enabled to use accounting information to make business decisions and judgments incorporating both technical knowledge and ethical principles.

Management accounting provides organisational decision-makers relevant accounting information to assist with their planning, controlling and performance management. In this subject, you will explore various management accounting principles and techniques used in contemporary organisations. You will apply concepts relating to budgeting, product and service costing, pricing, control and performance evaluation. You will undertake evidence-based inquiry to critically analyse and solve real-world business problems.

Management Accounting

The digital transformation of business operations has led to an increasing demand for accounting and business professionals to develop information and communications technology (ICT) skills. This subject is designed to develop your ICT skills in the context of accounting practice. You will learn the impact of ICT on an organisation’s environment and how it is used to analyse data and support operational and management decision making. Systems design and development, database management systems, database design, relational database, responsible data management, and emerging accounting technologies are also discussed.
