ACCOUNTING 11

ACCOUNTING 11
COURSE CODE: MAC – – 11

*Additional workbook will be used in class. The cost is $30.

Learn the language of money! Accountants understand how to collect, organize, analyze and report on the operations of various businesses. They also know how to evaluate the success of businesses in various industries. This is an incredibly valuable skill. Businesses are willing to pay big money for people who possess it, because it makes for good business decisions. Accounting 11 is the first course in financial literacy. Students learn how to analyze business transactions, interpret revenues and expenses, monitor changes in financial position, and prepare basic financial records (General Journals, General Ledgers, Trial Balances, Income Statements, and Balance Sheets). This course mirrors post-secondary courses in introductory financial accounting and is very valuable for students wishing to pursue Business studies at the college or university level. 

ECONOMICS 12

ECONOMICS 12
COURSE CODE: MEC – – 12

Economics 12 introduces students to the basic principles of economics. In this course students study the economic factors affecting domestic markets and analyze the decision-making processes of individual consumers, businesses, and governments. The course covers both Microeconomics and Macroeconomics curriculum as presented in first-year post-secondary courses (scarcity, incentives, supply/demand, profit-maximization, trade, government policies, etc.). It is recommended for students considering post-secondary study in Economics, Commerce, Business Administration, Business Management or Political Science, as it introduces students to the curriculum taught in greater detail within these faculties.

BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS 11

BUSINESS COMMUNICATIONS 11
COURSE CODE: YBMO-1B
 

AFK, LOL, JSYK…text slang is great for a 13-year-old on social media.  The problem is, if you are a professional trying to make the big money you don’t want to look like a 13-year-old.  Learn how to make KILLER presentations, master spreadsheets for collecting data, manipulate graphics, and create databases. In Business Communications you will also ditch the old two-finger style of typing and learn to touch type. Many students master speeds greater than 100 words per minute, without mistakes! This fun project-based course provides students with professional communication tools that will pay huge dividends in their other courses, and in life beyond high school.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP 12

ENTREPRENEURSHIP 12
COURSE CODE: MENT-12

Maybe you have been told that you should go to university, so you can get a professional job. Maybe you want to go to trade school, and dream of working for a great company. What if you chose to OWN the company instead? Have you considered having people work and make money for you, rather than you working for someone else? Entrepreneurship 12 introduces students to the “third career stream”, where innovation and determination are richly rewarded. Most people know of at least one self-made business icon. In this course students examine the mindset of successful business owners, and the resources they bring together to successfully take control of their own life making the big money.

ACCOUNTING 12

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING 12
COURSE CODE: MFA – – 12
 

Foundation Course: ACCOUNTING 11

Continuing with the basic Accounting Cycle learned in Accounting 11 (transactions and source documents through adjusted trial balances), Accounting 12 explores the special procedures for cash (including preparation of cash flow statements), merchandising businesses, subsidiary ledgers, and alternative business structures. Accounting 12 provides a huge advantage for students pursuing post-secondary business studies as the equivalent of Accounting 11 and Accounting 12 are mandatory in all post-secondary business programs.
