Abstract The purpose of this teaching case is to provide you with an exercise that uses cloud-based Google Sheets as an alternative to Microsoft Excel to learn spreadsheet functions from a managerial accounting perspective. Specifically, you will use fictitious data from Shippy Express, a shipping company seeking advice from your accounting firm, to develop managerial summaries of their financial transactions to help them make training decisions. You will be supported with instructional YouTube videos intended to guide you at any level of expertise. The case is particularly useful for asynchronous learning as it provides you and your instructors with real-time access to your work-in-progress, versioning audit trails, and a dynamic set of feedback functionalities that augment student-instructor collaboration. It will operate well when integrated into an accounting information systems or managerial accounting course.
