DESCRIPTION
Financial Reporting 1 covers the second semester of the first-year accounting syllabus. The standard has been set to the level required for those intending to become Chartered Accountants and it is, therefore, an extremely demanding course. Financial reporting is predominantly an applied discipline based on broad conceptual principles which are introduced in Financial Accounting ACC1106, the first-semester, first-year course. Students' understanding of these principles is strengthened in Financial Reporting 1, partly through their application to transactions and business events with a greater level of technical challenge. Students are also encouraged to debate some of
the unresolved or controversial issues in financial reporting.
DP requirements: Attendance at and submission of a minimum of 75% of tutorials AND weighted average of at least 40% for class tests excluding objective tests; AND a weighted average of 40% for assignments.
Assessment: Coursework: 35% Exam: 65%

Notional hours may very per courses depending on the course level and modality therefore, CEA recommends using NQF credits as a basis to determine U.S. equivalencies (1 NQF=.222 semester credits)
