Find a newspaper article or web page report of an item of accounting news, i.e. it refers to a current event, consideration, comment or decision that has been published after June 2013. Your article could also come from one of the professional journals such as 'Charter'. The article should not come from an academic journal. Academic journals generally do not contain news articles or articles of less than one page and are usually only published 2 or 4 times a year. If you are having a problem ensuring that your article is from an appropriate source contact Shibly Abdullah ([email protected]).
Explain the article that you have found in your own words and clearly relate the concepts, ideas and facts within the article to one or more of the theories or topics that you have studied this session. For example, the Australian Financial Review article contained in your readings (2.1) can be linked to topics such as Ethics, Accounting regulation and politics and Normative accounting theories (conceptual framework projects). Provide a copy of the article or web page, with details of the source, date and page number with your question answer.
