تمرين 11

For your personal consulting business, you decide to set up an accounting information system to help with taxes as well as to help monitor your revenues and expenses. You've heard that QuickBooks is easy to set up, so you buy it, install it on your computer, enter in recent transactions and begin to use it.
Required:
1. Explain one or two ways you could be a user of this accounting information system.( Hint: Use the discussion in the text considering the role of accountants in accounting information systems.)
2. Explain one or two ways you could be a manager of this accounting information system. ( One possibility: What practices do you employ to make sure your system is safe?)
3. After a few months, you decide to expand your QuickBooks with additional modules (payroll, inventory, etc.). Access the QuickBooks website ( http://quickbooks.intuit.com ), and consider one or two ways in which you could be a designer of your accounting information system.
