Accounting 5180 --
Since we are sharing the desk, you might also get questions about this accounting class. We have the FARS data on CD-ROM, on the middle machine below the horses picture (marked CD-ROM OMWL BusRef1).
There is also a manual that goes with it -
Wallace, Wanda A., 1953- Mastery of the Financial Accounting Research System (FARS) through cases / Wanda A. Wallace. New York : J. Wiley, c2003.
TC Wilson Library Business Reference HF5679 .W35 2003
The CD-ROM and manual are not the current pronouncements (CD-ROM is marked 2004 and manual was published in 2003 - although they came together when we purchased them).
Current pronouncements are in print only - 2005/06 is the latest on the shelf...
Accounting standards. Original pronouncements / Financial Accounting Standards Board. Stamford, Conn. : The Board ; New York : Distributed by McGraw-Hill, c1982-

Since it sounds like the students may be coming in during the evenings, we might see them on Monday nights.

Course Information: Acct 5180
I'm teaching an advanced accounting course where I am asking the students to do some research on accounting pronouncements.
Specifically, I would like them to research using the FARS system.
It is an evening class, so I'm hoping they can do the research using the busref.lib.umn.edu website.
Do the students have access to the accounting pronouncements via the web, or must they go to Wilson Library to do this?
