The (Exit) Price of a Horse: Finding the Fair Value of an Unusual Nonfinancial Asset
Students are placed in the role of a new employee in the mergers and acquisitions division of a regional accounting firm performing due diligence on a potential acquisition target for their client. Their task is to determine the fair value of a group of unusual nonfinancial assets, the horses owned by the target company, an equine training business. Students evaluate the horse’s highest and best use, identify market participant assumptions, create valuation models, determine the exit price, and perform a sensitivity analysis. Appendix A describes the equine industry and provides a source for many of the necessary valuation assumptions. This case study is complementary to cases where students calculate fair values in more traditional settings and is designed to push them outside their comfort zone while emphasizing that the same familiar concepts apply. The case is recommended for use in advanced financial accounting courses at the undergraduate or master’s levels
Team Psychological Contracts: Effects of Gender and Social Comparison Orientation
Understanding the psychological contract (PC) perceptions of college students is crucial for attracting and retaining them as early-career employees. We explore how gender and social comparison orientation (SCO) serve as antecedents and moderators of PC breach. Potential PC obligations were examined across 34 teams of full-time business students. Moderated relationships between SCO and gender were examined relative to PC development, breach, and commitment via a survey following a semester-long team project. Results showed that gender significantly influenced obligation perceptions, with females possessing stronger obligations of their team. Positive relationships existed between SCO and the strength of reported obligations and with breach perceptions. Breach was negatively related to affective commitment to the team. Gender moderated several relationships, with females generally showing stronger, significant associations, consistent with relational PC expectations (Adams et al., 2014). Given the rise of the boundaryless career (Kost et al., 2020), results enhance our understanding of implicit obligations college students hold in applied learning projects that further career-readiness. Results suggest that professors and career services staff can reduce the gap between students’ perceptions of their soft skills and employer expectations (Stewart et al., 2016). This study also facilitates our understanding of factors influencing team commitment, composition and perceived obligations

Rating: General AudiencesTags: Yu-Gi-Oh, Yugioh, Yugioh Duel Monsters, Joey Wheeler, Joey Wheeler x Reader, reader insert, dinner dateCreator\u27s Notes: This is my one attempt at writing something slightly romantic, as this piece was intended to please one of my sisters, and she loves a cute romantic scene. Alas, I have no ability to intentionally write romance, and she informed me it read like an elementary student\u27s assumptions about what dinner with a date is like. Since she has experienced romantic feelings many times, and I never have, I will take her word for it
