Course content
Accounting Theory, 7.5 ECTS credits. The first course comprises a theoretical perspective on external accounting. Theory in this context means a logically coherent and empirically based concept frame. However, the field of external accounting currently lacks a single established theory. The field of external accounting instead contains a number of different approaches, which are presented in the course. Among the concepts in accounting theory, particular emphasis is on the result concept, due to its importance in present-day analysis of companies.
Consolidated Accounts, 7.5 ECTS credits. The second course comprises design of annual reports for different company types, from independent companies to business groups. Covered in connection with this are external requirements, in the form of laws, recommendations, instructions and good accounting practice, which governs the annual report. This part also highlights problems and methods in connection with international transactions.
The last part consists of the preparation and completion of a Bachelor Thesis, 15 ECTS credits.
Teaching and working methods
The teaching takes the form of lectures and seminar exercises. The students should also study independently. The course, or parts of the course can be given in English.
Examination
The examination of the two first modules is arranged in the form of examination at the end of each section, or in the form of project work within the framework of the teaching, or in both these forms. The thesis is presented and defended at a seminar. The examination also includes critical review of another essay and active participation in the entire seminar series. Detailed information about the examination can be found in the courses study guide.

If the coordinator has recommended for the student an adapted examination or alternative form of examination, the examiner may grant this if the examiner assesses that it is possible, based on consideration of the course objectives.
An examiner may also decide that an adapted examination or alternative form of examination if the examiner assessed that special circumstances prevail, and the examiner assesses that it is possible while maintaining the objectives of the course.
