Accounting Policies and Procedures Course
Introduction:
Accounting policies and procedures are the most efficient way to implement company-wide effective internal control tools in any organization. They are part of every business cycle: purchase and payment cycle, inventory and production, HR (Human Resources) and payroll, fixed assets and capitalization of costs, and the sales and collection cycle.
Accounting policies and procedures are essential for the board of directors and senior management to communicate limitations and authorities given to different managers and employees throughout the organization. Moreover, their use is also extended to organize financial reporting and compliance with regulators outside the organization.
