Course detail
FP-UudprPAcad. year: 2026/2027
The course Accounting and Tax Software builds upon the knowledge acquired in the courses Accounting and Financial Accounting, where students became familiar with accounting methods for processing information and representing business transactions in accounting outputs, i.e., in the individual components of financial statements, as well as with the technical aspects of recording both routine and specific accounting transactions.
These competencies are further developed in Accounting and Tax Software through practical work with accounting documents and the use of accounting software. Based on the generated accounting outputs, students will prepare electronic tax filings, including personal income tax returns, corporate income tax returns, and VAT declarations.
