1. Course Description and Objectives


ACCO 435 Strategic Accounting Case Analysis (3 credits)
Prerequisite: ACCO 320, 330; COMM 401 previously or concurrently.

This course integrates topics in financial and management accounting, finance, and business strategy
covered in previous courses. Students are involved in a case environment that requires them to analyze
the external and internal environments of a business, perform financial analysis, evaluate alternatives, and
recommend a plan of action. Students are introduced to enterprise resource planning (ERP) platforms used
in companies, asset financing, and aspects of commercial lending to assess financing alternatives.

NOTE: Students who have received credit for this topic under an ACCO 470 number may not take this
course for credit.

The objective of this course is to consolidate and reinforce qualitative and quantitative tools and skills
necessary for case analysis. This course integrates all prerequisite courses taken in the undergraduate
program. It differs from a Strategy course in that students are expected to show strong quantitative skills,
thus supporting alternatives with Financial and Managerial Accounting methods and tools.

This course will provide a head start to those students choosing to pursue the CPA designation. They will
develop case writing and analytical skills essential for the graduate level CPA Professional Education
Program (CPA PEP). In addition, they will develop group case writing and presentation techniques and
skills essential in completing the CPA Capstone Module 1, demonstrating their teamwork, leadership skills,
communication, self-management, professional and ethical behavior, and ability to integrate the knowledge
of all six technical competency areas: 1-Financial Reporting, 2-Strategy and Governance, 3- Management
Accounting, 4-Audit and Assurance, 5-Finance and 6-Taxation.Course participants will be expected to play
the role of business advisors or consultants, tasked to assist management in making a sound business
decision. This will require students to write a group Case Report and deliver a convincing group PowerPoint
presentation before a simulated organization’s Board of Directors (BOD) or Management Team. A case
write-up methodology will be provided to assist students in delivering an effective case. The case question
thoroughly integrates all management disciplines (strategy, marketing, human resources, operations,
information technology, finance, accounting, and taxation). Students will be exposed to topics such as

B
Financial Ratios, Capital Budgeting, Variance Analysis, Cost Allocation, Business Valuations, Financing
options and considerations, and Information Systems - ERPs.

In addition, business strategies and tools to be reviewed include mission, vision, strategy, SWOT, PESTEL,
Porter’s 5 Forces, Value Chain Analysis, Balanced Scorecard, and various forms of expansion and
divestiture (mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances, and joint ventures). As a result, the exercises and cases
covered in this course have been carefully selected to ensure a high degree of integration and are generally
representative of most syllabus areas. Students will be required to be part of a group and tasked to analyze
cases.
Note that students are responsible for all material contained in the syllabus, irrespective of the extent to
which it is covered in class, unless advised to the contrary.

Coverage level legend:


• C Level: demonstrate knowledge of the theory and can explain, describe and demonstrate
knowledge that is low to moderate in complexity for a routine situation.
• B Level: demonstrate knowledge and application of the theory. Be able to analyze problems, and
draw logical conclusions in routine situations that have low to moderate complexity.
• A Level: demonstrate knowledge and application of the theory. Be able to analyze problems in
sufficient depth and draw conclusions in routine situations that have low to moderate complexity. In
cases of non-routine and moderate complexity, candidates are expected to be able to see some of
the interrelationships.
Additional learning outcomes include Business Leadership, Teamwork and Communication.

Business Leadership – each group needs to elect a team leader who will be responsible to coordinate the
work activities and delivery schedule, organize meetings and practice runs, and manage the team HR and
communication needs. The learning outcome is to develop leadership abilities and effectively operate as a
led team.

Teamwork – students are required to gain the ability to build effective working relationships within their
team and amongst their peer groups.

Communication – students need to develop their abilities to write group cases effectively, concisely and
clearly. The students will also improve their capabilities in effective group case presentations, defending
their recommendations and implementation plan before a Board of Directors. The dress code for the
presentations will be business attire.

3. Teaching Method, Class Contribution and Attendance


Lectures will rely on two complementary approaches: formal teaching by the instructor as well as interactive
exercises, case analysis, presentations, and discussions (either in groups or individual).
Student participation is mandatory as class discussions are an integral part of this course.

7. Academic Integrity
Academic Integrity: The Code of Conduct (Academic Integrity) at Concordia University states that
the “Concordia University places the principle of academic integrity, that is, honesty, responsibility
and fairness in all aspects of academic life, as one of its highest values. Instructors, students and
administrators are expected to be honest and responsible in their academic conduct and fair in their
assessment of academic matters”.
Plagiarism: The most common offense under the Academic Code of Conduct is plagiarism which the Code
defines as “the presentation of the work of another person as one’s own or without proper
acknowledgement.”
This could be material copied word for word from books, journals, internet sites, professor’s course notes,
etc. It could be material that is paraphrased but closely resembles the original source. It could be the work
of a fellow student, for example, an answer on a quiz, data for a lab report, a paper or assignment
completed by another student. It might be a paper purchased through one of the many available sources.
Plagiarism does not refer to words alone - it can also refer to copying images, graphs, tables, and ideas.
“Presentation” is not limited to written work. It also includes oral presentations, computer assignments
and artistic works. Finally, if you translate the work of another person into French or English and do not
cite the source, this is also plagiarism. In simple words: Do not copy, paraphrase or translate
anything from anywhere without saying where you obtained it! (Source:
http://www.concordia.ca/students/academic-integrity.html).
All students enrolled at Concordia are expected to familiarize themselves with the content of this code.

are verbal or in writing, face to face or online/virtual. Failing to comply with the Code may result in
charges and sanctions, as outlined in the Code.

Extraordinary Circumstances
In the event of extraordinary circumstances and pursuant to the Academic Regulations the University may
modify the delivery, content, structure, forum, location and/or evaluation scheme. In the event of such
extraordinary circumstances, students will be informed of the changes.

Use of Urkund:
In order to uphold the University’s high academic integrity standards, a text matching software, Urkund,
may be used in some of the graded work to detect any potential plagiarism. Please review Urkund’s
privacy policy (https://www.urkund.com/about-us/privacy-policy/).

• When entering the Zoom classroom, students will have their microphones on mute, their full names
written, and video camera turned on. Zoom allows for different backgrounds to be used if you do not
want to show your study space.
• Behaviour throughout the lecture is expected to be the same as if attending an in-person lecture. This
includes, but is not limited to: use of the chat function if you have questions/comments, coming to class
prepared, listening and active participation.
• Attendance and participation is a key requirement in order to understand the course material and the
overall evaluation. If you are unable to come to class due to a special circumstance, please communicate
with the instructor to determine alternate participation.
• Academic integrity is to be maintained by the student at all times. See below for Concordia University
academic integrity guidelines.

in the course and students may be asked to submit or consent to the submission of personal information
(for example, name and email) to register for an online service. Students are responsible for reading and
deciding whether or not to agree with the Third Party Technology’s terms of use. Use of any Third Party
Technology is voluntary. Students who do not consent to the use the Third Party Technology should
identify themselves to the course instructor as soon as possible, and in all cases before the DNE deadline,
to discuss alternate and mutually acceptable modes of participation.

Note that, as a part of this course, some or all of the lectures and/or other activities in this course may be
recorded. Recordings will be focused on the instructor and will normally exclude students. It is possible,
however, that your participation may be recorded. If you wish to ensure that your image is not recorded,
speak to your instructor as soon as possible.

Please also note that you cannot share recordings of your classes and that the instructor will only share
class recordings for the purpose of course delivery and development. Any other sharing could result in a
violation of the law and applicable University policies, and may be subject to penalties.
