Take My Liberty ACCT 212 Class

Liberty's catalog describes ACCT 212 as the study of managerial accounting principles used to make business decisions more efficient and effective, with applied work in cost analysis, budgeting, capital budgeting and profit analysis.

Wild and Shaw are read in an unusual order. Week one starts with chapter thirteen, then the course returns to chapters one and two and moves forward two chapters a week to chapter eleven in week eight.

The early chapters set out what managerial accounting is and how job order and process costing assign costs to products.

The middle chapters cover activity-based costing, cost behavior and cost-volume-profit analysis, then variable costing and budgeting, which is where the faith project is set.

The later chapters move to flexible budgets and standard costs, performance measurement and the capital budgeting and relevant cost decisions managers face.

Connect homework falls every week, and the four Connect exams, worth 100 each, fall in weeks two, four, six and eight.

The Faith Integration Project, worth 75, falls in week five, and the Individual Learning Project, worth 125, in week seven.

ACCT 212 is carried in its two written pieces, while the Connect rhythm of homework and exams stays with you from start to finish.

The Individual Learning Project begins with the company. Liberty's rule ties the company to your surname's first letter, so a listed firm that fits is found first and its newest annual filing pulled from EDGAR.

Then the full set of questions is worked through that filing, every answer pinned to a page and every computation written out.

Ask about inventory turnover, say, and the answer shows cost of goods sold over average inventory with both figures traced to the balance sheet and income statement.

For the group faith essay, your share is written to the group's chosen topic, usually budgeting, cost behavior or capital decisions, and ties a passage of scripture explicitly to the method, such as counting the cost before building in Luke 14 as a picture of capital budgeting.

Both pieces arrive before their deadlines for you to read and submit, the essay to the forum and SafeAssign as the guide requires.

Connect stays entirely in your hands.

An ACCT 212 writer is an accountant who works with financial statements and internal reports, often a cost accountant, a financial analyst or a CPA in industry.

That experience shows in the learning project, where the answers come from the right part of the 10-K and the notes are read as carefully as the statements.

It also shows in the faith essay, where the managerial accounting is explained correctly before scripture is applied to it.

A second reviewer checks every answer and calculation before delivery.

The accountant never learns your name.

If a Connect chapter is unclear before an exam, such as how a flexible budget differs from a static one, a short explanation can be sent.

Scripture in the essay is handled with care and tied to an accounting method.

They have prepared budgets and capital requests themselves, which helps the essay explain those methods accurately.

Connect is the first difficulty, with homework every week and a cumulative exam every other week from week four.

The chapter order is the second. Starting with chapter thirteen and then going back to chapter one confuses students who expect the book in order.

Finding the right company is the third, since the learning project requires a particular starting letter and a full 10-K, not a glossy summary report.

The 55 questions are the fourth. Answers drawn from the notes and the MD&A take more digging than those from the statements, and every answer should cite its source.

The faith essay is the fifth, because credit depends on an explicit link between a passage and a course topic, and a general essay about faith earns little.

Week six brings the third exam just before the learning project is due.

Group coordination for the faith essay falls in week five, beside two chapters and a homework set.

The faith essay is due in week five and the learning project in week seven, so a handover in the first three weeks leaves comfortable time for both.

The company for the learning project is chosen and confirmed with you first, since the starting letter rule must be met.

Your share of the faith essay arrives several days before the group's internal date in week five.

The learning project, with all 55 answers sourced, arrives several days before week seven closes.

The quote lists the two items; Connect homework and exams never appear.

Of the two lines, the annual report project is the bigger.

Many students order only the learning project, the single largest item outside Connect.

Joining after week five simply means the plan covers the report project alone.
