Abstract

This paper presents a range of solutions to twelve separate case studies that explore the basic principles of accounting. Each case study introduces a key topic of financial reporting that relates to a specific company or industry. The solutions were created in response to problem sets in each case that guided the analysis of the topic at hand. These problems required a basic understanding of accounting concepts and U.S. GAAP. The cases are independent of each other and require an assortment of skills including the preparation of journal entries, T-charts, and financial statements, along with a general comprehension of accounting concepts, financial analysis, and various calculations.
