National Accounting Case Competition
For the first and only time competing, the LSU E. J. Ourso College of Business Department
of Accounting participated in the National Accounting Case Competition. For the competition,
each team was assigned a different case based on actual situations Deloitte encountered
during audits. They then presented their findings to a panel of Deloitte partners
and retired partners who serve as members of an Audit Committee. All cases included
examining the standards in detail and applying professional judgment to determine
the solution. The event was held at Deloitte University in Westlake, Texas.
The 2016 competition was the last year the National Accounting Case Competition was
held.
