CoursesAccountingThis course is a continuation of Introduction to Accounting. A merchandising partnership will be followed for a fiscal period. Payroll procedures through 941 Forms will be covered. There will be increased emphasis on automated procedures and analytical skills. Students will “cap-off” the course with a computerized job simulation. One (1.0) math credit can be earned upon successful completion of two semesters of Accounting.
(semester) 0.5 unit
Prerequisite: Introduction to Accounting.
