Accounting Information Systems
This course examines information systems used for managerial decision making
and external reporting, with specific emphasis on assuring systematic
control over accounting information and on the reliability of that
information. Computer and telecommunication systems are changing the way
companies and not-for-profit organizations do business. As information
becomes a competitive tool, line managers are encouraged to get more
involved in decision making. Further, as communication between companies and
investors continues to shift from lagged formal reports (i.e., financial
statements) to tailored, on-line reports, the importance of computer-based
accounting systems will increase.
