100Begin by choosing a topic for your comparison/contrast essay. You are free to select your own topic, or you may use one of the sample topics listed below. However, you should choose a topic that you have knowledge of so that you have sufficient points of comparison or contrast to discuss in your essay. You will need to compare or contrast two or three primary points about the two subjects you choose to write about, resulting in an essay with either four or six body paragraphs, an introductory paragraph, and a conclusion.
In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the touchstone.
Sample Topic Ideas:
Compare or contrast two cities you’ve visited or that you’ve lived in
Compare or contrast two members of your family
Compare or contrast two sources of news
Compare or contrast two singers in different music genres
Compare or contrast two historical figures
Compare or contrast two artists (for example, Vincent van Gogh and Pablo Picasso or Keith Haring and Andy Warhol)
Compare or contrast two eras in time
Compare or contrast two television series
Compare or contrast two types of technologies (for example, Android and Apple phones or PlayStation and Xbox)
Compare or contrast two medical topics (for example, traditional medicine and modern medicine or doctors and midwives) 700 to 1000 words

Write an analysis of a theme in one of the following short stories:
1. Tillie Olsen, “I Stand Here Ironing”
2. Amy Tan, “Two Kinds”
3. Alice Walker, “Everyday Use”
4. Raymond Carver, “What We Talk About When We Talk About Love”
See the discussion of theme in Making Literature Matter. Your thesis should reflect three points
(aspects of theme) that you are going to focus on in your paper. Another approach to thematic
analysis is to illustrate three methods by which an author develops a theme.
Quoting:
Quote liberally from the short story (citing in-text, MLA style). Look up how to quote short
prose passages, as well as how to block longer passages of prose. Remember to introduce each
quote with an independent clause (followed by a colon); the introduction to a quote provides
you with an opportunity to state an opinion and make clear why the quote is significant.
You will need a works cited page (MLA format), in which you cite the short story.
You are to use only ONE source for this paper—the short story itself

1. The Concept Map must visually?connect all of the specified objectives? (Program Outcomes, MSN Essentials, and NONPF Competencies)?to course work?(such as specific discussion board topics, written assignments, exams, lessons, and reading content). 2. All items should be labeled, for instance, label the objectives and label the course work you select with name of the assignment/reading/discussion board topic and which week it was introduced. 3. Use Microsoft Word or a PowerPoint to create a Concept Map. You can use the features found on the “Insert” tab of a Word doc (in the horizontal ribbon on the top of a Word doc page). For instance, if you click on “insert” you will see shapes and SmartArt. You can use a PowerPoint slide with shapes and lines to create a concept/mind map. This is not a PowerPoint presentation , but a PowerPoint slide can be used to “draw” the Map. Outcomes/Competencies to be connected with course learning: MSN Program Outcome #2: Create a caring environment for achieving quality health outcomes (Care-Focused). MSN Essential VIII: Clinical Prevention and Population Health for Improving Health National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Competencies #4: Practice Inquiry Competencies • Recognizes that the master’s-prepared nurse applies and integrates broad, organizational, client-centered, and culturally appropriate concepts in the planning, delivery, management, and evaluation of evidence-based clinical prevention and population care and services to individuals, families, and aggregates/identified populations.

1. Compare and contrast the presentation requirements of the Conceptual Framework for
Financial Reporting and of AASB132 – Financial Instruments: Presentation in relation to
such instruments as convertible notes, particularly when they concern the probability of
conversion. Are you more inclined to agree with the requirements of AASB132 or the
suggestions provided by the conceptual framework? Justify and support your
perspective. (Adapted from Deegan, C., Financial Accounting, 2016).
2. What are the major issues addressed by accountants when dealing with international
financial transactions? How and why do accountants mitigate risk in such instances?
3. The article entitled ‘One third of large Australian Companies pay no tax, ATO Data
Shows’ (ABC, 14 December 2018, Topic 3) states ‘About one third of large companies
have failed to pay tax even though they made a gross profit … but the Tax Office says
most have good reasons…’. In terms of the Code of Ethics for Professional Standards
what issues may arise in this type of situation for the Professional Accountant?
4. When IFRS15/AASB15 Revenue from contracts with customers was released, one of
the large international accounting firms issued a short document entitled IFRS Industry
issues: Construction and Real Estate. In the document the following was stated: ‘The
adoption of IFRS15 may lead to significant changes in the pattern of revenue and profit
recognition. Careful consideration and planning will be needed for a range of issues,
including the effect on compliance with bank covenants and performance based
compensation.’ Why do you consider this advice was given? Do you agree with this
advice? Why or why not? (Adapted from Deegan, C., Financial Accounting, 2016).
5. Going forward, can you envisage a single universally accepted theory of accounting?
Why or why not? Justify and support your response.
6. If a company adopted a particular accounting policy that the Australian Securities and
Investment Commission (ASIC) considered to be questionable, in principle ASIC might
consider taking legal action against the Company Directors for failing to produce true
and fair statements. However in your opinion why may it be difficult for ASIC to prove in
court that the company’s financial statements were not true and fair. What other action
might ASIC take in this instance? (Adapted from Deegan, C., Financial Accounting,
2016)
