Maths is not a pre-requisite for Accounting, although the learner needs to be able to follow a logical and systematic thought process. This subject also teaches ethical behaviour, accuracy and sound judgement. Accounting provides the learner with book keeping skills up to financial statements as well as the skills to make financial decisions based on the interpretation of these statements. Reconciling books, ethics, cost accounting, inventory systems and budgeting form part of the curriculum. Accounting is a platform for any business degree and provides good basics for first year Accounting at any university.
