Is it ok to take Managerial Accounting before Financial Accounting?

Question

or one has to come before the other?

Answer 1

At my school it didn't matter which one was first. Check with your advisor.

I thought managerial was easier, so you may want to weigh your schedule and see which semester would be the best for th other.

Answer 2

I strongly recommend taking financial first.  Managerial has some concepts that come from financial (debit, credit, T-accounts, etc.).  So if you take managerial first, you may have to learn those concepts on your own to understand the managerial accounting concepts.
