Financial and Managerial Accounting for BSBA
#1
It looks like Financial Accounting at Saylor is recommended for "Intro to Accounting" credit instead of Financial! (Also through ACPE not directly through ACE.) So it won't fulfill the requirement? So it seems like Straighterline is the cheapest then, since I will have a month's membership there.

Managerial Accounting can be taken at Saylor, right? ACE says 3 cr in Managerial Accounting.

Financial and Managerial Accounting can be super tricky as schools tend to call them something different. For Financial and Managerial accounting you would actually take the Accounting I and Accounting II courses at SL and not the same named courses. In my opinion Intro to Accounting would be the same as Financial, easy way to do it is to shoot an e-mail to tesu and ask how it would transfer in. Honestly I'd just do Accounting I/II at SL you can complete them super quick and to me its worth the money to get them done much quicker. I'd say the opposite if you were going for an Accounting Major but looks like you are going for CIS

The equivalencies are listed on SL's site - Thomas Edison State University Course Equivalency Guide | StraighterLine

TESU Intermediate Accounting = SL Financial Accounting
TESU Principles of Financial Accounting = SL Accounting 1
TESU Principles of Managerial Accounting = SL Accounting 2

FWIW, my son, who had no accounting background whatsoever, completed SL's Accounting 1 and Managerial Accounting in about a week total.

Some schools call them Financial Accounting and Managerial Accounting, others call them Accounting I and II. They are considered a "pair" in that you normally have to take both for a business degree.
