Against this background, the course puts emphasis on developing basic understanding about the nature and purpose of the accounting information and its use in the conduct of business operations. This is done to help to develop logical reasoning, careful analysis and considered judgment among students.

Accounting as an information system aids in providing financial information. In class XII, Accounting for Not for Profit Organisations, Partnership Firms and companies are taught as a compulsory part.
