Communication of such research and analysis will require students to prepare organized/structured written papers utilizing appropriate APA format and then present such findings to various audiences. Areas of research will include but will not be limited to SFACs, FASs, SASs, the Internal Revenue Code, and Treasury regulations. Prerequisite: ACNT 3040 and Senior Year Standing.
