AS Accounting

AS Accounting

Description

The AS Accounting course equips students with the necessary knowledge and skills to be able to assess the performance of all types of business organisations. It will enable you to effectively analyse and evaluate financial data so that you can make judgements, decisions and recommendations about how businesses can manage their financial affairs. In the first year (AS) you’ll have two study modules: ‘Introduction to financial accounting’ and ‘Financial and management accounting’.  In the first module students will learn about key accounting records such as ledgers, balance sheets and profit & loss accounts.  The second module includes accounting for sole traders and for limited companies, final accounts, budgetary controls and the impact of technology on accounting.  In the first year students sit two papers: one for each study module during the year. Each paper lasts 90 minutes and carries 50% of your marks for the year.  Many students who do A-level accounting go on to university and become qualified accountants, working for accountancy practices or within an organisation. With a few years experience, some accountants then decide to start their own practice. But your financial acumen can support a wide number of other careers. Classes are suitable for learners of any age who are interested in Accounting. If you have any doubts as to your suitability please contact us.  Textbooks will be recommended at the beginning of the term, the student will have the option of purchasing their own copy or loaning from the library or the department on the deposit/loan scheme.
