О курсе

This course introduces the essential principles of accounting, guiding learners through the fundamentals of bookkeeping, chart of accounts, journal entries, and payroll management.

The course also covers key topics such as payroll processing, tax considerations, depreciation, and interest calculations. By the end, learners will be able to confidently manage basic accounting tasks and understand the structure of financial records.
