Project Proposal: Financial Reporting

The purpose of the Final Project is to apply the concepts and techniques of the module to the analysis of real-world situations or problems. You are expected to use diverse sources of information and to carry out an original analysis rather than summarise or rehash existing work. You are also encouraged to use situations and data from your own experience where possible.

Your task for Week 6 is to prepare and hand in a Project Proposal that includes the nature of the project, the sources of information that you plan to use and the most important concepts and techniques to be applied. You should also identify the organisation selected for research, expectations prior to analysis and why you believe that the selected organisation will make a good case study subject. You will receive feedback on the Proposal from the Instructor in Week 7, which will give you time to make adjustments.

For this module, you are required to complete a course project that reveals mastery in the application of the financial reporting and analysis concepts emphasised in the course. This involves reporting on a specific organisation within an industry and describing the financial reporting and accounting practices relevant to the chosen firm. The Final Project should be a formal business report that provides a detailed analysis of the regulatory environment in which the selected company operates, its capital structure, tax system, financial reporting regulations and corporate governance structure. You will also be required to conduct a thorough financial analysis of the organisation.

For this project, you will select a company to research with regards to significant financial reporting and analysis issues. You should select an organisation for which financial information is readily available and address the following topics.

For this project, your tasks are as follows:

Nature of the project
Sources of information that you plan to use
Most important concepts and techniques to be applied
