Description

Theoretically, negative shareholders' equity ("deficit") indicates that a business is insolvent. Yet many large, profitable businesses report deficits today. My research focused on the fast-food industry, namely McDonald's, Starbucks, Yum! Brands, and Papa John's, to uncover how these deficits came about and what they mean for investors.

Generating an astounding $110.7 billion annually in domestic revenue alone [1], the world of accounting is one deceptively lacking automation of its most business-critical processes. While accounting tools do exist for the common person, especially when it is time to pay their taxes, such innovations scarcely exist for many larger

Generating an astounding $110.7 billion annually in domestic revenue alone [1], the world of accounting is one deceptively lacking automation of its most business-critical processes. While accounting tools do exist for the common person, especially when it is time to pay their taxes, such innovations scarcely exist for many larger industrial tasks. Exceedingly common business events, such as Business Combinations, are surprisingly manual tasks despite their $1.1 trillion valuation in 2020 [2]. This work presents the twin accounting solutions TurboGAAP and TurboIFRS: an unprecedented leap into these murky waters in an attempt to automate and streamline these gigantic accounting tasks once entrusted only to teams of experienced accountants.
A first-to-market approach to a trillion-dollar problem, TurboGAAP and TurboIFRS are the answers for years of demands from the accounting sector that established corporations have never solved.

The purpose of the ACC / CSE Thesis Project is to develop a solution that simplifies the process of financial reporting. Through our extensive research and experience with designing a project to simulate the life cycle of a conceptual user initiative, we have created a product that transforms these ideas into results. Rather than relying on the expertise of external consultants who are often expensive, the product strives to provide users with an affordable solution to educate and apply financial reporting standards in accordance with IFRS and GAAP.

DescriptionThis project asks the question: Are significant accounting crimes prevented from occurring through new legislation, increased prosecution of existing legislation, or a different solution? Three of the major accounting scandals (Enron, Tyco, and WorldCom) are reviewed, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 is explained, and accounting scandals since 2002 are explored.
