Judging from the elective course, if you are not an accounting major, you don't need to take that course. Because the subject of tax planning has the consistency of knowledge, it cannot be used alone and must be linked with other financial disciplines. To learn tax planning well, you must have some accounting knowledge (at least basic accounting knowledge, because there will be many accounting records) and be familiar with tax laws. I remember that when I was studying, there were 600 to 700 pages of books on tax planning, and the content was quite large.

But elective courses should be easy. Completing specific examples means an open-book exam. There is nothing to be afraid of. You can make a model or write a short paper at most. Just ask a friend from the economics department to do it during the exam.
