2. Media Assignment [25%] - Note that there is a Rubric on iLearn in relation to this

assessment - you should use the material in this Assessment Guide to assist in an understanding

of your task and to assist in your understanding of the Rubric.

Task: Prepare an analysis of a current (published after 1st April 2023) Australian

newspaper/media article that relates to an aspect (topic, area, issue) of the material covered

in ACCG2051 from Lecture 4 forward.

Maximum length - 1000 words (including any references). [for example, pick an article about

a director breaching their duties; or a company going into voluntary administration; or a

shareholder class action; or a takeover; or insider trading; or insolvent trading ...]

This assessment (your written analysis only, not the actual newspaper/media article) must

be submitted via iLearn/Turnitin.

No extensions will be granted. There will be a penalty (deduction) of 5% of the total possible

mark to be applied for each day beyond the due date that a written assessment is not

submitted, up until the day (including weekends). After the day a grade of '0' may be

awarded even if the assessment is submitted. This penalty does not apply for cases in which

an application for Special Consideration is made and approved.

Note: Students should individually select articles - this is an individual assignment.
