ABSTRACT This paper examines the effects of practice through collaborative simulation on development students' confidence in critical managerial accounting skills not commonly covered traditional lecture courses. We assign students to teams that complete a large-scale integrative business (LSIBS), CAPSIM Foundation's Business Strategy Simulation Game, which serves as learning experience. The semester-long project requires accountant's job phased assignments where they make individual...

ABSTRACT The accounting profession relies heavily on professional integrity to control fraud and abuse; yet we know little about the relationship between fraud. We propose that influences accountants' attitudes through rational calculations of risk reward, where accountants weigh loss against potential returns. adapt test a model incorporates outcome bias framing in an experiment with student participants (n = 86). When confronted financial statement fraud, likely integrity, mediates effect...
