ACCT 212 Managerial Principles Sample Papers, Week by Week

Liberty University · BS in Accounting · Business and accounting · Updated

ACCT 212 turns from reporting to outsiders to decision making inside the business: cost behavior, job and process costing, cost-volume-profit analysis, budgets, variances, relevant costs and capital budgeting. The sample below covers the group faith integration project, which connects Scripture to those decisions; the individual learning project answers 55 questions provided in the course about a company the student chooses, so it is not sampled here.

What ACCT 212 covers

Wild and Shaw's managerial accounting text is read one or two chapters a module/week with a presentation and a Connect homework set, and four Connect exams test the material, with the last three cumulative.

In the faith integration project, assigned groups write at least 1,000 words on how the Bible relates to a course topic, post the essay to the discussion board and submit it through SafeAssign, supported by two or more scholarly sources besides the text. The individual learning project asks each student to answer 55 questions about the annual report of a company whose name begins with the same letter as the student's last name.

Liberty's 2026-2027 catalog describes ACCT 212 Managerial Principles this way:
In this course, students will not only study the principles of managerial accounting used to make more efficient and effective business decisions but will also perform analysis of cost information, budgeting analysis, capital budget decisions and profit analysis through applied learning.

Where ACCT 212 papers lose points

ACCT 212 work loses points when the faith project states biblical principles without tying them explicitly to a managerial accounting topic, when it relies on fewer than two outside scholarly sources, when group members' sections do not form one argument and when Connect homework is left until the exam week.

Using a ACCT 212 sample well

The faith project sample takes one managerial accounting idea, sunk costs and capital decisions, and shows how Scripture and research both shape the decision. Groups can use the same structure with any course topic their instructor approves.
