Accounting Internship Technical Questions

Hello, I have an accounting internship next week at a non-finance tv/movie company (think Disney, Fox, NBC) and was wondering what type of technical questions they will be asking. I am not trying to go the accounting route but since I don't have any finance internship I need something to build off of. My accounting skills are at a beginner level (Took intro in college and got an A-, and I'm studying for CFA I and FRA is pretty much the hardest section). The posting says that I need basic GAAP and financial principle. Should I expect anything more advanced other than connecting the 3 statements? Thanks for the help.
