Writing annotated bibliographies is a skill that can be applied to research projects. An annotated bibliography is a list of reference citations to books and articles used for researching a topic. Each citation is followed by a summative or evaluative paragraph, known as the annotation. The purpose of the summative annotation is to inform the reader of the main arguments, primary points, and topics covered by the resource.

Find 5-10 scholarly articles (relevant news articles will be accepted) that focus on the current and new U.S. accounting standards for reporting; FAS 141R, Business Combinations, and FAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.

Create an annotated bibliography from the selected articles using the links in the Resources for assistance.

In your outline include:
•An organization with diverse business combinations.
•Description of foreign and U.S. transactions and appropriate accounting practices.
•Application of the appropriate corporate financial reporting practices of the FASB and IASB.
•Changes in U.S. accounting standards based on your research.
•Overview of your selected organization.
•Format your citations according to APA (6th Edition) style and formatting.
