Abstract
The Max-Value Stores case provides an opportunity for students to apply the understanding of various financial reporting topics (revenue recognition, liability de-recognition, accounting changes, and deferred taxes) to determine the applicable GAAP for recognizing gift card ‘breakage’, the estimated amount of gift cards that is unlikely to be redeemed. The case requires students to examine several technical and conceptual financial reporting issues in a real-world setting and helps to strengthen students? accounting research capabilities, understand implications of the choice of an accounting policy for performance measurement and financial statement analysis, and develop critical thinking and professional judgment skills.
