They describe accounting research readings groups; skills and abilities in the category of data analytics important for accounting graduates; teaching data analytics and the cash collections process; the determinants of students' repeating their first college-level accounting course; the relationship between exam completion sequencing and performance in accounting classes; whether accounting students are less creative than other students, potential causes for differences in creativity, and an intervention to enhance creativity; the scholarly output of accounting researchers in the periods surrounding a change in university affiliation; educator responses to proposed changes to the Uniform CPA exam; a project for students to analyze and make a client recommendation for the most tax-effective saving option for IRAs; and teaching the operating cash flow. -- Annotation ©2019 * (protoview.com) *
