Accounting literacy is required for finance, audit, banking, analyst and founder roles. This assessment checks core principles (accruals, matching, going concern), double-entry bookkeeping, how the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement connect, key financial ratios, and working-capital and depreciation calculations. It is framework-neutral and does not test country-specific tax law.
