Consequently, if you do not complete it, you will not be eligible for a curve in this class.
Although the grade is not counted, Tableau Part 1 is required. Therefore, the grade is not used in any grade calculation. Part 1 is an exercise and is only counted as a completion grade. Tableau is not needed for this portion of the module.
In Part 1 of the case, you will gain an understanding of a few accounting ratios, which will help you to develop good questions about the companies you are analyzing in Tableau Part 2. Your overall goal is to develop an investment recommendation for an investor. For this case, we (1) define an analytics mindset, (2) discuss the history of and ratios involved in the DuPont Method and (3) use the DuPont Method to perform data analytics and data visualization techniques.įor this case, you will implement an analytics mindset by comparing and contrasting different companies within different industries using the accounting ratios from the DuPont method. To understand the DuPont Method, it helps to use an analytics mindset. One introductory framework that has been especially useful in understanding company performance is the DuPont Method (sometimes called DuPont Analysis, DuPont Model or DuPont Framework). Investors can use the information contained in financial statements to better understand company performance so they can make better investment decisions. We will be using an EY-developed case, Implementing the DuPont Method, which I have edited for ACCT 3371.Ī key purpose of financial statements is to provide useful information to decision makers, including investors. 
The learning objective of this module is to introduce you to data analytics which employers consistently tell us are important to new accountants.
