The unit will assist students to assess and understand the financial position and performance of an entity, and to make informed predictions about its future directions, based on the information contained within published accounting reports and the application of foundational fundamental analysis techniques. The unit's aim is to provide business owners, managers and potential investors with an understanding of financial statements and to develop knowledge, understanding and ability to apply financial statement analysis in business decision making activities. The unit is taught in the early phases of the MBA program to help students broaden their knowledge and understanding of business, providing a foundation for later units in the program that rely on analysis of financial data.","title-full":"GSN404 Accounting for Decision Making","title-short":"Accounting for Decision Making","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=GSN404&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=GSN404","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=GSN404"},"year":2025,"years":[2025]}
