Course Description: Presents accounting principles and their application to various
businesses. Emphasizes corporations and the study of financial analysis. Includes and introduces
cost/managerial accounting concepts. Lecture 3 hours per week.
Attendance: Attendance for every class session is strongly recommended. Roll will be checked at the
beginning of each class period. When arriving after roll call, it is your responsibility to assure that the
“absent” is changed to “attended”. A student missing more than 20% of scheduled class hours, unless
there are mitigating circumstances, may be dropped from the course in accordance with school policy
for withdrawal. If a student stops attending class without following through with the procedures for
withdrawal, an “F” will be assigned at the end of the semester. Students who do not make significant
progress as stated in the student handbook will be dropped with a “W” within the semester drop dates .It
is the responsibility of the student to review all materials covered and complete all assignments missed
during his/her absence. Find a classmate that you can contact for information in the event you miss
class. It is not the instructor’s policy to hand out lecture notes nor is it a policy to repeat the missed
lectures during office hours. Thomas Nelson Community College is committed to the success of all
students. Numerous campus support services are available throughout your academic journey to assist
you in achieving your educational goals. Thomas Nelson has adopted an early alert referral system
called SAILS as a part of a student success initiative to aid students in their educational pursuits. Faculty
and Staff reach out to students by raising a “flag”, which alerts students to a potential concern and by
offering a “kudo”, which lets students know that they are performing well in class. This communication
occurs by email within the student’s TNCC email account. Students may access various college
resources in SAILS by logging onto their MyTNCC account or by checking the front page of their
Blackboard account. More information on SAILS can be found at http://tncc.edu/services/sails.
Contagious Disease Procedure: Students should remain at home if they have symptoms of a
contagious disease that may endanger the health of others at Thomas Nelson Community
College. Please contact your instructor by phone or email if you suspect you have contracted a
contagious disease that causes you to miss more than a day of class. When you are ready to return to
class, submit a doctor’s statement or medical clearance that authorizes your return. While away from
class, you will be expected to maintain progress in all course requirements.
Disabilities: Students with disabilities who will be taking this course and may need disability-related
classroom accommodations are encouraged to make an appointment to see me as soon as possible.
Drop and Repeat Policy: A student will be limited to two enrollments in the same credit course. If a
student requests to enroll in the same course more than twice, the need must be documented and approved
by the Vice President of Academic Affairs. For further information, please consult the TNCC Student
