Abstract

What follows is a series of case studies concerning standard financial accounting procedures completed in the 2017-2018 academic school year. The following case studies dive into particular concepts and theories within financial accounting that I had not seen or been exposed. I was challenged throughout the year to dissect scenarios seen in the real world and attempt to solve real accounting issues. I was exposed to many different theories, methods, and situations where an inquisitive accounting mind was essential. The purpose of our honors accounting class was to complete, individually, various case studies in order to expand our accounting prowess. As opposed to other theses, this thesis covers a vast array of topics, thus, giving me a wider breadth of knowledge. Every case took numerous hours per week to finalize. Some cases were group work and some cases were individual work, giving our class experience working as a team and working by ourselves. Without this class, my intrigue with accounting would be drastically minimalized, and I would not have nearly as much exposure to real-life scenarios with accounting while still an undergraduate.
