Overview

Uplatz offers this comprehensive course on Financial Accounting & Reporting. It is a self-paced course with video lectures. You will be awarded Course Completion Certificate at the end of the course.

Financial accounting is a specific branch of accounting involving a process of recording, summarizing, and reporting the myriad of transactions resulting from business operations over a period of time. Financial reporting includes all of a company's communication of financial information to people outside of the company.

A business uses their accounting records to compile financial reports called Accounting Reports. Reports can be as brief or comprehensive as needed for custom-made reports intended for specific purposes such as profitability of a product line or sales by region. Accounting reports are equivalent financial statements.

“Accounting” encompasses all of a company’s financial transactions. A well managed accounting department will have set policies and procedures for expenses, data management and the generation of financial reports.

Financial accounting is concerned specifically with the generation of these reports, that they are based on accurate information and follow “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (otherwise known as GAAP). GAAP sets accounting standards in the United States for a wide array of topics, including financial statement presentation.

Uplatz course on, Financial accounting and reporting, discusses how accountants act as processors and purveyors of information for decision making and the needs of those who use accounting information. It also looks at the role performed by accountants and notes the need to be aware of relevant regulatory and conceptual frameworks.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
