Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The course will be conducted in cooperation with the business partner TPA – Tax, Accounting, Advisory, and Real Estate Consulting Company. Students will have the opportunity to get a valuable insight into accounting practice and implementation of standards from both theoretical and practical point.
The course will focus on the role of financial accounting principles and processes in creating and reporting an organization’s financial statements. The course will provide students with a basic knowledge of accounting and reporting according to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). It will focus on the structure of the IASB, the Conceptual Framework and selected standards such as IAS 1, 2, 16, 18, 36, 38, and IFRS 3, 9, 10, 13 and 16. The IFRS rules will be complemented by case studies/examples where students can see how the standards are actually applied in practice. Furthermore, with the business partner TPA students will have the opportunity to conduct the case study in the company and gain a feedback from industry professionals, as well as to gain an insight into a daily business.
Students who complete this course will be able to use financial accounting principles to create and/or process an organization’s financial statements.
The course will consist of lectures, quizzes, home assignments, exams, and case studies in the company. The lectures (both from the lecturer and from the business partner) serve to explain the key concepts of the subject matters and their application in practice and will serve as leading material for the exam preparation.
