Principles of Accounts (POA)

Introduction

Principles of Accounts introduces students to the world of business. Students will learn the basics of financial accounting and develop their abilities to prepare and analyse accounting information to provide insights about the performance and position of a business as well as to communicate and use the information for decision-making.

In the learning process, students will also realise the importance of professional ethics in the business environment.
