Course Policies:






The pre-requisite for the course is Accounting 201 or its equivalent, with a minimum grade
of C.
No make-up examination will be permitted except for reasons of illness where the instructor
is notified in advance of the scheduled exam and the student supplies a letter from a
physician explaining the nature of the illness.
I retain the right to retain any class related materials prepared by students.
Each significant contribution during class discussion is rewarded by a bonus point card. A
few examples of "significant contribution" are "to ask appropriate questions helping the
class understand the content," "to show a better and creative approach to cases or problems."
Each bonus card is worth one multiple choice question in the next exam. You may not sell
or buy the card or use the bonus card to raise your score above 100%.
Assignments will be collected on a random basis. Each submitted assignment must show
their work. No two assignment should not look similar.
Each quiz will be given on finishing each chapter. The date might be different from the
dates on the schedule.




On finishing each chapter, there may be a review quiz. Out of the seven scheduled quizzes,
the worst two scores will be dropped.
The class average for this course has typically been in the 2.6 - 2.9 range. You may assess
your performance based on the traditional grade cutoffs of 93%=A, 90% = A-, 87%=B+,
83% = B, 80%=B-, 77%=C+, 73% = C, 70%=C-, 60% = D, and below 60% = F.
I may curve the final grades if necessary, based on the class average and the academic
standards for the course.
Incompletes will be given only in the RAREST of circumstances and according to
university policy. There will be no opportunity to raise your course grade by doing "extra
credit" work during or after the end of the semester-that would violate University policy.

Office Hours
I encourage each of you to take advantage of my regularly scheduled office hours to discuss
problems and to seek assistance when needed throughout the semester. I would like to talk to each
of you at least once. If you cannot make it to my regularly-scheduled office hours, feel free to
schedule an individual appointment with me. It is my job to help you learn and succeed in this
class, and I will help whenever possible.
In an effort to make the class successful for all students, please provide me feedback on how the
course is going and how you feel you are doing in the course. I can make this class more successful
if I hear from you about what you do and do not understand. I welcome your feedback during office
hours and via e-mail.
Grading questions or appeals
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE SEMESTER TO TAKE ACTION ON GRADING
ISSUES. BY THAT TIME IT WILL BE TOO LATE! If you feel there exists a grading error on
any of the above grade components, or if you feel you need to bring to my attention other facts or
circumstances that might affect the grade for that item, you will have one week from the date the
grade is posted on Blackboard or the graded item is redistributed back to the class (whichever is
earlier) to take such action and have the matter resolved. If for whatever reason you are not in class
on the day the graded item is available for pickup, the one-week period will still begin on that day.
Dishonesty Policy:
Cheating on any exam or class assignments will result in a zero for that activity. A definition of
"cheating" is found in the SDSU Student Policies Manual, Section 01:10:01 on cheating, plagiarism
and facilitating academic dishonesty. Executive Order 969 mandates that faculty report all incidents
of academic dishonesty to the Center for Student Rights and Responsibilities. http://csrr.sdsu.edu.
Fulfillment of assigned projects must represent the original work of each student. Plagiarism is not
appropriate.
