Course Description

Welcome to Spring 2021 ACC 202 - Managerial Uses of Accounting Information. This is my 15th semester teaching this course and it will be a unique and challenging one with the pandemic. But I am looking forward to the challenge.

Classes will be held on campus in Gatton B&E 291. In addition, all classes will be recorded via Echo 360 and will be available for viewing after class is completed.

I have posted the syllabus for this course in the Syllabus section. The syllabus contains information about the textbook, my office hours (which will be virtual this semester), the homework assignments, the class schedule and other useful information. We will go over the syllabus to start the class on Day 1.

In order to save substantial money on the textbook, we are using an access model called First Day. The syllabus includes links to videos that explain this new access model.

We will be using McGraw Hill Connect for homework and there is information forthcoming in following announcements on how to access Connect. If you want to get a head start, access to all chapters of homework will be available on Thursday January 21at 8:00 AM.

All tests will be conducted virtually via Lockdown Browser and Respondus Monitor. The classroom will be available for test taking and I will be proctoring the exam there. However, you can take the exam in any quiet place that you wish.

We will be spending the first part of the first day of class going over the syllabus and my expectations for the course. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions before we start the semester. My email address is included in the syllabus. I am certainly looking forward to meeting you and beginning the journey of learning about Managerial Accounting on January 26
