What the paper says

Abstract International Accounting Accreditation Standard A5, issued by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), requires that information technology competencies be integrated into accounting program curricula. Lee et al. (2018) describe specific software tools used in the accounting profession. As expected, accounting professionals rated Microsoft Excel as the most frequently used software tool. Surprisingly, these professionals rated Adobe Acrobat as the second most frequently used software tool. In a follow-up survey of 286 accounting professionals unique from the respondents in Lee et al. (2018), respondents confirmed the importance of Adobe Acrobat knowledge for accounting graduates entering the profession. This case introduces accounting students to the Adobe Acrobat functions rated most useful to accountants. Students using the case significantly increased their knowledge of the 10 Adobe Acrobat functions accounting professionals rated most important.
