Case

ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS:

Use the data from the Sample-Superstore to create 3 different reports in Tableau. Using the template provided, discuss the results of each report including how you think the analysis would be useful to the company's management in evaluating operations. Also discuss how you think Tableau could be useful to management accountants.

WRITING/PRESENTATION REQUIREMENTS:

Write a 3-4 page paper (not including cover page, abstract or references) incorporating your reports. Use APA 6th ed. formatting. You should have a minimum of Two peer reviewed references from the library and/or authoritative references (FASB Codification System, Audit Standards, IMA, SOX, COSO, etc.) not including the textbook.

Abstract :

The Abstract is an overview of the paper, written after completion. Other researchers use the Abstract to determine if your work will be useful to them. The Abstract should include the background, hypothesis or research question, methodology for data collection and analysis, the findings of your research, and conclusions (about 100-150 words).

Be sure to page break since the abstract goes on its own page

Introduction:

The Introduction should lead readers into the topic and its importance. Introductions typically include the overall topic of the paper, the specific focus of the paper within the larger topic, the main points in the paper, the kind of paper (study, argument, critique, discussion), and the purpose.

Writing Tip:

The length of the introduction should be in proportion to the length of the paper. Also ask yourself, “With my purpose and my audience, how do I engage my readers best?” In the introduction, you set the tone of the piece, establish your voice, and demonstrate your writing style; be authentic to your purpose and your audience.
