DESCRIPTION

This course is the third course in the accounting learning line in the bachelor programmes Economics and Business Economics; Business Administration and International Business Administration. In this course we focus on external financial reporting, in particular by business enterprises. You learn about key issues in financial reporting from the perspective of the reporting company, about the regulatory framework of financial reporting (Bridging theory and Practice - Knowledge). You learn to apply your knowledge to specific issues derived from reporting practice (Bridging Theory and Practice - Application). In doing so, you practice skills such as a abstraction and reasoning (Academic and Research Skills).
