International Accounting
Course #: MBA AF 615
Description:
This course covers graduate-level financial accounting and analytics in the international context. We will discuss the institutional, cultural and environmental influences on accounting standards with an emphasis on financial reporting and analytics. Many of the topics in the international accounting and analytics course have domestic counterparts. However, new factors play a role in the international arena, such as the diversity of laws, practices, customs, cultures and competitive circumstances, and the risk associated with fluctuating exchange rates, differential rate of inflation, and property rights. This course is designed to enhance your understanding of international accounting issues from the prospective of companies with internationalized operations and/or finance. Throughout the course, we will discuss the similarities and differences between US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). We will also apply various data analytics techniques to analyze international accounting issues.
