Description

FINAL EXAM REVIEWThe comprehensive final exam consists of 50 questions, approximately 2/3 of which are from chapters 10 through 12. The remaining questions are from chapters 1 through 9. The questions for chapters 10 through 12 are similar in style and format to those on the first three exams; i.e., multiple choice questions on definitions, concepts and short problems. As noted in the General Course Outline, The comprehensive questions for chapters 1 through 9 have a different focus as the materials from these chapters have already been tested in detail. The comprehensive questions focus on the key concepts from each chapter. The key concepts are the principles, concepts, definitions those that will be important in future courses and careers - the take-aways from this course. For example, a non-accounting major may never need to know how to prepare a journal entry, but knowing what net income means and how it is calculated would be important for anyone working in business. For example, a non-accounting major may never have to prepare a master budget for a company, but knowing how budgets are affected by changes in volume would be important for anyone working in a business with an annual budget.
