Year 12 Accounting gives students the tools to make real life financial decisions in a constantly changing and uncertain world. Accounting is the process of preparing and communicating financial information to a wide range of users. Accounting enhances financial literacy. Accounting helps individuals and organisations to be accountable to stakeholders for their actions.
