SEMESTER I SESSION 2024/2025
PROJECT: FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR SERVICE OPERATIONS
This project is a business process simulation that contributes 20 marks to the overall assessment for this course. It aims to enhance students’ understanding and practical knowledge of different business types and ownership forms, the recording process, and the preparation of financial statements. This is a group project, with each group consisting of five (5) members. Each group must create a sole proprietorship (simulation only) that will operate a service business for 3 months, from 1 October 2024 to 31 December 2024.
In the setup phase, students will register the business, design the logo and business source documents, and plan the business activities, mission, and vision. During the operation phase, each business will conduct transactions, some of which will involve interaction with other student groups’ businesses. Transactions will be recorded in journals and ledgers. In the final phase, each business will prepare financial statements and closing entries.
