Specific Requirements (2 of 5 Slides) Section III. "Accounting Quality Analysis" (Qualitative Analysis): ■ Every firm has a few key accounting policies/methods (e.g., choice of LIFO vs. FIFO, accounting for bad debts, etc.). Such methods are important to assessing a firm's overall accounting quality#. Identify those methods for your firm. Given the underlying economic characteristics of your firm, why are the above accounting method choices so important? Given the accounting methods that your firm uses, do you think those methods lead to high or low quality earnings? Why or why not? The "Assessing Accounting Quality" lecture notes (not covered in class) posted on BB under the Group Project tab will help with this part of your project. There is a corresponding Zoom recording for those lecture notes. ■This part of the project does not require that you estimate the Earnings Manipulation Model discussed in the "Assessing Accounting Quality" lecture notes. #Accounting quality refers to how well a firm's accounting method choices capture the firm's underlying economic characteristics, performance and financial position.
