The case draws on the experience of Denelle Smart, assistant comptroller for financial reporting for a New Hampshire subsidiary of a London-based company. She has been assigned a role in her company's transition from UK GAAP to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) taking place throughout the European Union. In addition to describing the many challenges Denelle faces as she leads her company's transition to IFRS, this case discusses specific IAS 38 criteria, which determine how research and development costs must be accounted for under IFRS.

The Obama administration might one day be enshrined as one of the great stewards and innovators of K-12 education. Administration policies driven by the Race to the Top competition have inspired millions. Unfortunately, the same visionary leadership has been absent when it comes to higher education, where the need for innovation and reform might be even greater than in U.S. primary and secondary schools. While postsecondary education costs have risen at more than twice the rate of inflation over the past 30 years, the U.S. graduation rate from associate-degree programs is abysmal -- less than 30 percent -- and the national graduation rate from four-year schools hovers around 50 percent, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. That is significantly worse than U.S. high...
