...Overview of Paper Requirements Dr Gehling’s INFO2070 class The paper you turn in for this iNFO2070 class must be an original work, written by you. 1 The final paper you turn in to me should not have been submitted to another instructor (at AUM or any other school) for credit in another class for a past, the current, or a potential future term. If you are currently employed, your paper should not include any information that might be considered proprietary, confidential, or might jeopardize your job, your company's competitive advantage or our national security. If you paper describes a case study (i.e. how something is done), I prefer that you not mention the company or agency involved by name unless it directly relates to specific points reported in your paper. Instead I encourage you to try to use phrases such as "a southeastern law firm (or whatever type of business)" or "a software developer located in the Southeastern United States". You should indicate industry or type of business, but unless you receive written permission, you should not name the organization/business. Contact me if you have questions. Research Topic Selection I am not asking for a long paper, but your topic should be of interest to you AND in some way relate to the various topics we are covering in this class. Remember, you are going to have to "live" with the topic for the entire semester, so do not pick something that you are not interested in or will quickly become bored with. In addition, your...

...receives its mandate from the Accounting Standards Act, which came into effect on 01 Nov 2007. It is responsible for prescribing accounting standards for companies, charities, cooperative societies and societies in line with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The formulation of accounting standards in Singapore follows a formal and rigorous process that comprises four successive stages—namely exposure, reviewing of comments, post exposure and Issuance of final standards. Exposure Stage The exposure stage is triggered in response to the IASB issuing an Exposure Draft (ED) on new IFRS; amendments to existing IFRS, International Accounting Standard (IAS); a draft Interpretation of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) or amendment to an existing Interpretation. ASC proceeds to issue its own ED on the proposed equivalent FRS (ED FRS) or draft Interpretation (ED INT FRS) for public comments. Extensive effort is also expended to proactively seek feedback from about 50 interested parties, comprising industry associations, Governmental bodies, listed companies, banks, securities firms and academic institutions. The ASC may also conduct separate public consultations to solicit comments on specific areas covered in the ED FRS or ED INT FRS. Reviewing of Comments The ICPAS’ ASC forms standing subcommittees, comprising both ICPAS members and representatives from certain...
