In this accounting learning object, students follow the steps involved in the closing process. Temporary accounts contain ending balances for a specified period and must be closed.
Accounting Careers and Titles: Areas of Specialization
Learners read about the different kinds of positions available in the accounting field at private corporations, government agencies, and not-for-profit organizations.
Learners read about the purposes of balance sheets and income statements and then place accounts into these two financial statement categories in a drag-and-drop exercise.
In this learning activity you'll describe the operation of an AND gate by using a truth table, a waveform diagram, a Boolean Algebra equation, a switch analogy, and a written definition.
In this animated activity, learners examine the terms "half-reaction," "oxidizing agent," and "reducing agent" and follow five interactive examples to balance equations for oxidation-reduction reactions. Three problems are provided as a self-check.
The learner will understand the operation of the six fundamental logic gates and the inverter by using truth tables, Boolean Algebra equations, switch analogies, and written statements.
In this interactive object, learners read a brief summary of the principles of cash basis accounting and then check their knowledge of transactions in a drag-and-drop exercise.
In this learning activity you'll review the operation of an Exclusive-NOR gate by using a truth table, a Boolean Algebra equation, a switch analogy, and a written statement.
In this learning activity you'll explore how an Exclusive-OR gate operates by using a truth table, a Boolean Algebra equation, a switch analogy, and a written statement.
Learners examine the main characteristics of the four financial statements required in accounting: the income statement, the owner's equity statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash flow.
Financial Statements: What Are They? What Do They Mean?
Learners read about the most common forms of financial statements including balance sheets, cash flow statements, and profit and loss statements. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Boyle's Law states that gas volume varies inversely with the pressure at constant temperature and is described by the equation PV = constant. An example of a sample of gas at two conditions of P and V is used to illustrate the law.
In this screencast, learners examine the concept of gear ratios. The number of teeth, diameters, and velocity relationships are discussed and calculated using linear ratio equations.
In this learning activity you'll describe the operation of a logic inverter using a truth table, a Boolean Algebra equation, a switch analogy, and a written statement.
