Abstract

The purpose of this case is to create greater awareness for both students and educators of alternative accounting methods recommended for specific industries such as agriculture. Many issues in traditional accounting courses are not relevant for agricultural businesses. This case provides students with an experience in explaining the nature of and accounting for market valuation of assets as recommended in the Financial Guidelines for Agricultural Producers which can be applied to real-world farm clients.
