Accounting Writing Assignment : Unit 2
Choose a question below. You only need to select one question from the list below:
1. Describe the features of a voucher system and list typical supporting documents for a voucher.

3. Distinguish between the accounting for capital expenditures and revenue expenditures.
Use a standard essay response to all questions (i.e. four to five paragraphs with three to five sentences per paragraph, including an introduction, middle paragraphs, and conclusion). All responses must be typed double-spaced, using a standard font and 12 point type size for ease of reading and grading. Students who are successful in earning the maximum number of points tend to submit writing assignments that are 350-500 words (1-2 pages) per question. Review the material in the textbook related to the question. You may also want to use other sources to help you answer the question, but the primary source for answering the question should be your textbook. The faculty wants to be sure you understand the concepts covered in the textbook. Outline your thoughts to provide a framework for your response.
Be as thorough and complete as possible. Citation Styles : The majority of your response should be your own original writing based on what you have learned from the textbook. However, students may also use outside materials if applicable. Provide a citation and a reference for any materials used, including the required textbook. Sources are listed in two places. The first, a citation, is briefly listed within your answer. This includes identifying information that directs the reader to your list of references at the end of your writing assignment. -The second, a reference, is at the end of your work in the list of references section . All sources cited should follow APA style and provide enough identifying information so that the reader can access the original material .
-Understanding the Course Content: The faculty will be evaluating your work to see that you demonstrate an understanding of course content and that you are covering key concepts discussed in the textbook. While you may certainly provide additional information from outside sources, you must use the course textbook as your primary source of information.
