Progressive testing will take place throughout the course. Although term tests are

accounting knowledge, each test may include references to prior material. Final grades
are calculated on the total marks achieved throughout the semester, expressed as a
percentage of the total possible marks.
The textbook accompanying software resource, McGraw Hill Connect, will be utilized
throughout the course for online homework assignments and/or quizzes which will be
mandatory and form a significant portion of the graded evaluation summarized above.
A make-up test for a missed test and/or acceptance of a late assignment are at the
discretion of the course professor, according to their policy communicated to students
at the beginning of the course and posted on Blackboard.
In this course, in-class and course participation is vitally important. Based on professor
judgment, each student must complete all assigned activities, including all graded and
non-graded assignments, with an acceptable level of effort for the student to be
permitted to write the midterm and/or the final exam.
