Publish or perish: a case of not-for-profit accounting and governance
This case helps students apply not-for-profit accounting, ethics, and governance knowledge to a situation based on an actual entity. Students are asked to play the role of an accountant who volunteers to help a not-for-profit prepare financial statements only to discover that they have become involved in an ethical dilemma regarding their actions due to numerous accounting, governance, and tax compliance issues. The case presents facts enabling students to identify these issues and conduct research to determine how the not-for-profit can comply with the tax code and generally accepted accounting principles. Students must also decide what actions to take to resolve the ethical dilemma. The case is suitable for senior-level undergraduate or graduate-level students, providing questions specifically for not-for-profit accounting and professional ethics classes.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Accounting Education (JAEd) is a refereed journal dedicated to promoting and publishing research on accounting education issues and to improving the quality of accounting education worldwide. The Journal provides a vehicle for making results of empirical studies available to educators and for exchanging ideas, instructional resources, and best practices that help improve accounting education. The Journal includes four sections: a Main Articles Section, a Teaching and Educational Notes Section, an Educational Case Section, and a Best Practices Section. Manuscripts published in the Main Articles Section generally present results of empirical studies, although non-empirical papers (such as policy-related or essay papers) are sometimes published in this section. Papers published in the Teaching and Educational Notes Section include short empirical pieces (e.g., replications) as well as instructional resources that are not properly categorized as cases, which are published in a separate Case Section. Note: as part of the Teaching Note accompany educational cases, authors must include implementation guidance (based on actual case usage) and evidence regarding the efficacy of the case vis-a-vis a listing of educational objectives associated with the case. To meet the efficacy requirement, authors must include direct assessment (e.g grades by case requirement/objective or pre-post tests). Although interesting and encouraged, student perceptions (surveys) are considered indirect assessment and do not meet the efficacy requirement. The case must have been used more than once in a course to avoid potential anomalies and to vet the case before submission. Authors may be asked to collect additional data, depending on course size/circumstances.
