公共部門會計的角色
The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) is a UK-based professional accounting body that claims to be “the world’s only professional accountancy body specialising in the public services” (Annual Review, 2009). In light of this, critically examine the distinctive nature of public sector accounting and the need for its own financial framework.
You may choose to focus your discussion upon the practice within a particular country (eg China, Australia) and / or organization sector (eg health). If so, please make this clear within the introduction.
Depending upon the choice of title, you may wish to provide supplementary or supporting material (for example page(s) from an Annual Report or an extract from a policy document http://ukthesis.org/kjlw/ ).
根據所有權的選擇,你不妨提供補充或輔助材料(例如頁(s)的年報或摘錄一份政策文件)。
However, please remember that all text appearing before the bibliography will be included in the word count. i.e. the word count includes all elements such as titles, subtitles, acknowledgements, abstracts, executive summaries, formulae, tables, captions and footnotes. The Bibliography and any material in Appendices will not count toward the final word count. However Appendices should be used appropriately, for example to include supporting data which may be too detailed or complex to include as a Table, and not simply as a device to incorporate material which would otherwise cause you to exceed the word limit.
