Systems Understanding Aid (SUA)
After the Systems Understanding Aid (SUA) is completed and graded, it is yours to keep and use for future reference. You should mark all parts of the materials as you consider appropriate, except for journals, ledgers and documents. These will be handed in for grading and should include only the information stated in the Aid requirements. It is suggested that journals, ledgers, documents and schedules be neatly prepared in pencil to facilitate corrections. Any type of paper can be used for schedules as long as they are neatly prepared and can be easily read. The penalty for unexcused late assignments is 50% of the maximum points.
