Accounting
Welcome
to The Potter’s School!
Thank
you for your interest in Accounting.
This web
site provides a general outline of the expectations for this course. It
should answer your initial questions and provide a big picture of the
upcoming school year.
Accounting
is a rigorous course. I set
high standards while providing positive, constructive feedback. I recognize
that each student has different gifts and abilities, and I want to
encourage each student’s success. I hope to pass on a love for
learning to my students.
I use
Scripture to begin every class because I believe God’s Word is relevant
to teach and train our hearts.
I hope your student will be edified by this instruction.
I
look forward to the upcoming school year and the opportunity to serve your
family. In order to assist you
in the registration process, I have included a few
“housekeeping” items I would like for you to understand before
you move forward. If you should
have any questions, please contact me.
I will do my best to clarify and answer any of your questions. Please know it will be a privilege
to partner with you in the instruction of your student in the upcoming
year.
In
His Sovereign Grace,
Mrs. O’Hearn

Description
God will hold us accountable for our
work, use of resources, work with others, our work itself, and the time and
talents used. He calls us to account for and to keep order of all entrusted
to our care. The Bible gives at least two clear examples where this
activity is God’s will. First, in the parable of the ten talents we
are taught to give a good account for our talents. Secondly, in 1
Corinthians 14:40 it says, “all things should be done decently and in
order.” God’s directive is to make order out of chaos. In
learning accounting the attempt is made to give order to business
activities, to keep track of talents and resources, and to present fair
pictures of our work activity. This course will provide an introduction to
accounting concepts, principles, and techniques used in recording business
transactions. Topics covered include: the accounting cycle; financial
statements; deferrals and accruals; cash; receivables and payables;
inventory.
Prerequisite
The student needs to have successfully mastered a first year Algebra course.
