Description
The purpose of this study was to examine the level of academic
achievement in Intermediate Accounting Theory I and II of community/junior
college students who completed Principles of Accounting I and II before
matriculating at Florida Atlantic University and those who followed an
alternate track and completed a substitute course at Florida Atlantic
University after matriculation. The Scheffe method of multiple comparison was used to determine
if significant differences exist at the .05 level. Sixteen hypotheses
were tested comparing academic achievement in Principles of Accounting I
and II or the substitute course with Intermediate Accounting I and II.
Students were grouped as matriculating from Broward Community College,
Miami-Dade Community College, Palm Beach Junior College, other Florida
community/junior colleges, out-of-state community colleges or having
completed the substitute course. These groups were then sub-grouped by
grade level achievement in Principles of Accounting I and II. The F
probabilities should be interpreted in light of the small N within some of the sub-groups. There is no significant difference between the grades received in
Intermediate Accounting Theory I and II by students who completed Principles
of Accounting I and II at a junior college and those who completed
the substitute course at Florida Atlantic University. Significant differences
do exist within some junior colleges when grouped by grade scale,
but there seems to be no consistent pattern. The substitute course students
had significant differences in Intermediate Accounting Theory I and
II with substitute course.
