Credit points: 15
Subject outline
In Accounting and Finance for Business, you will be introduced to the language of accounting and its financial application to problem solving in business. You will have the opportunity to use accounting and financial concepts in a range of business contexts: justifying a marketing campaign financially; managing the local footy clubs cash flows; determining whether an event will cover costs; estimating the return an investment offers investors; developing the budget for the business plan you will pitch to the board; or defining a savings plan to fund your own retirement. Working independently and working together with other students, both on-line and face-to-face, you will learn about accounting and finance through solving business problems, and develop the ethical, critical thinking and interpersonal skills required to question the financial viability of business plans, and add sustainable value to any business or organisation.
