Abstract:
The grade the student intends to earn in the course, and intentions to take the CPA exam attend graduate school do not seem to motivate students to improve performance in the managerial accounting course. The number of work hours, job type, and course load do not seem to have any negative effect on student performance. Students seem to make remarkably accurate evaluation of their reading and listening abilities and to some extent their math abilities. However, students having poor performance overestimated their writing abilities. Lastly, GPA and financial accounting grade were strong predictors of student performance in managerial accounting.
