Managerial Accounting 1C

Course Objective:  Managerial accounting provides information used in management decision making. Unlike financial accounting, much of this information is confidential in nature and is not reported to the public. Our objective is to have direct experience in organizing and analyzing data used in a wide variety of management decisions. In today's business, world, the computer is central in collecting, organizing and analyzing data. It is almost imperative for the business student to have direct experience with a computer while preparing to meet the challenges of the business world. To accomplish this you will process selected problems using an electronic spread sheet program.

Academic Integrity and Disruptive Behavior:

• Statement on Academic Integrity: It goes without saying that academic integrity is expected from each student. As such, if there is a reasonable basis for concluding that a violation of academic integrity has taken place; all suspected parties will be awarded a course grade of "F", with a letter to the Dean explaining why this grade was awarded. It will be up to the students involved to convince the instructor that the violation did not take place.

• Disruptive Behavior: De Anza College will enforce all procedures set forth in the Student Standards of Conduct (see catalog), any student disrupting a class may be asked to leave that class. Administrative follow-up may result.
