ACCT 248 - Business Valuation for Accountants


Semester Hours: 3
Accountants must be able to prepare valuation estimates for clients and attest to the reasonableness of valuations established by others during audits, tax planning, and consulting engagements. The course will focus on the interpretation of accounting information to analyze financial statements, cash flows, and earnings, and how valuation is determined through the strategic analysis of companies, assets, and business interests. Students will use their analytical skills and applicable technology tools to establish independent forecasts of firm value and equity prices.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
Open only to matriculated graduate students in the MS Accounting or MBA Accounting program.  See specific program requirements.
