Principles of Accounting II builds upon the foundational concepts introduced in the first course, delving deeper into the accounting cycle, financial statement analysis, and the various methods of asset, liability, and equity valuation. This course emphasizes managerial accounting topics such as budgeting, cost behavior, performance evaluation, and internal controls. Students also explore the application of accounting principles in decision-making processes, ethical considerations, and how accounting information supports business planning and strategy. Upon completion, students gain a broader and more practical understanding of accounting practices in both corporate and non-profit organizations.
