Overall: This project is to be based on a current business situation with an ethical concern or it can be on a current accounting policy change including the ethical component.
Source: The Research Presentation is based on a current ethical topic (within the past 24 months) in corporate accounting. Your choices are (a) Using one or more articles from Market Watch column from the Sunday “Money & Business” section of the New York Times by Gretchen Morgenson or another similar resource, as a starting point to prepare a presentation of the central issue, what went wrong, and the accounting implications. Your presentation is to be prepared with a focus on ethics and although in most cases the company was not in violation of GAAP they have many times crossed the line for professional ethical behavior. Or (b) use the Chapter 15 supplement on proposed guidelines for leases to present on current research on the proposed changes, a teaching demonstration to your classmates, including the ethical differences embedded in both GAAP and IFRS.
Required: Pre-approval from me on your selection including the choice of a particular Market Watch article or the Leasing chapter supplement. Once approved I will post the title of the article and that article is no longer available for another student to choose.
