Welcome to My Site: The Home of Accounting

Hello, my name is Alisha Hart. I hope that you enjoy my blog and I will be posting some information about my company and week please feel free to leave any comments you believe could be helpful. I will also be using this site to post drafts of my assignments. Please feel free to give any reviews or advice and don’t hold back I appreciate honesty.

Introduction:

Photo Caption: This is me Alisha Hart, in my favourite jumper, feeling nervous and ready to begin my first term of Accounting, Learning and Online Communication by seeing “WEEK 1” on ‘My CQU’ home page.

Hello, my name is Alisha Hart, I am currently studying Accounting, Learning and Online Communication through the CQUniversity’s SUN program. This means I will be studying via distance whilst completing my SACE certificate. Although this is the only university subject I am studying I will still be completing all of my Year 11 lessons whilst working part-time.

I have always had a passion for business, growing up in one myself. Being from a rural town I want to learn how to help business grow not only themselves but the communities around them. I was drawn to accounting because of my love of maths and business. But also because of accounting’s power in being more than just a numbers game. I love how this course sees accounting as related to reality, because to business owners their life savings and financial security is not a game. I want to gain the needed qualifications to help businesses grow and give families that have given up everything that needed assistance.

Having come from a small rural town where everyone knows everyone I am excited by how this course has all the communication mediums incorporated. Which I also believe will give me the needed skills for my future career.

Being new to university I would love any tips or advice from students that have studied previously!

  • Reflections, Questions and How my Company Differed

    October 13, 2019 by

    To begin with, these ratios have been such a process! They have been challenging, enlightening and difficult. From these ratios I have learnt that Keller UK are in trouble. However, they do have high efficiency which is just not reflected in their profitability ratios. The worst year for Keller across all sectors was 2018, due… Read more

  • Insights of Economic Profit

    October 3, 2019 by

    I found that this process was very interesting and that as I continued through calculating and analysing the different aspects of economic profit I began to see the different ways that each factor effected my economic profit. From this process I learnt that Keller’s figures for economic profit were not consistent. But this made sense… Read more

  • Initial Thoughts About Ratio’s

    September 20, 2019 by

    Beginning this journey I was asking myself how exactly could I do this? I knew the equations but I was struggling and then, I found Maria’s videos. This video proved to be a life saver and a great way to start my ratio analysis journey. How did you start your ratio analysing journey?

  1. Hi Alisha,
    Love love love your blog!
    You’ve low key made me realise just how behind I am! Thanks for the motivation haha!

    I was studying distantly before I started at the Brisbane Campus this term so I know it can be challenging sometimes and can make you feel a little disconnected but its so good to always see you joining in the Zoom sessions, feels like you’re apart of the class with us! Looks like you are absolutely smashing it so far! Nice!

    1. Hi, I do like your blog. Wow, you must be busy working as a chef. I use to work in hospitality and wow can it be stressful. I think you have accidently posted a skeleton blog (I don’t know if that is the word but that is what my media teacher use to say). But I do like your introduction and I too am very passionate about empowering women, you should read Jodi Picoult or Gilligan Flynn they are all about that.
