15 pages of accounting goodness

So, as part of getting course credit for my internship, I have to write a 5 page “evaluation” paper, a sort of summary of what I did, what I learned, etc. However, the main assignment is a 15 page paper where I have to address a current issue in accounting. Since the assignment title is “Issues and Solutions” I suppose I have to come up with a solution too.
A glaring issue right now is how accounting firms are dealing with the recession. However, I’m not sure that cutbacks in spending are really an “accounting” issue, and I don’t know if I can write 15 pages about it. Someone else suggested writing about the shortage of accountants, especially in regard to 2010. I need to investigate that a bit but a google search didn’t turn anything up at first glance.
I had a dream the other night that I came up with a great topic, but I couldn’t remember what it was when I woke up!

Does your company not send out regular e-mails with status on how to do this or that with respect to the current economy?
Try impaired goodwill or falls in the value of assets for starters – there’s tons to go with!
Thank you for all of the comments! That is a good suggestion. I guess I am still trying to get a handle on the basics, so all of the emails about recent changes have been going over my head! I’ll skim back through some and see what I can make of them
Yeah, just save them – you’ll have a small treasure chest of things to talk about by the time you’re done!
Haha, but I can only pick one, and then talk about it for a long time!
You obviously pick the juiciest ‘gem’
