Financial Reporting and AnalysisMany different types of economic decisions require accounting data, and one of its most important uses is informing outsiders of the economic status and progress of the firm. These reports follow a body of accounting methodology referred to as generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In contrast, the management of the firm requires data that will aid in controlling operations and in evaluating the performance of subordinates. The financial reporting and analysis major provides an invaluable base for future managerial responsibilities in a variety of industries and functions. Collecting and interpreting financial information is critical for strategic decision-making, and through your interaction with key stakeholders and departments, you will acquire sound general management skills and can expect to be quickly promoted into leadership positions in production and operations or marketing.
