I agree with you in your position because I too believe the CPA does not have to advise Ahi on its plan to earn interest on their $100,000,000 tax liability to the IRS by mailing the check from the U.S. Virgin Islands to create a float. Article seven, scope and nature of services, of the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct sates that the CPA should observe the principles of the Code in determining the scope and nature of services provided (Colson, 2004).

This plan should have probably been discussed within the finance or accounting department in Ahi Corporation.

If any client or persons that has any financial interest in a company is offered a gift or entertainment and accepts the offer, they are in the risk of complying with the “Integrity and Objective Rule.” A client should have a firm understanding of what is acceptable when accepting a gift.

The CMA Code of Ethics recommends that “physicians provide patients with whatever information that will, from the patient's perspective, have a bearing on medical care decision-making and communicate that information in a way that is comprehensible to the patient.” [1]. This statement has a very important message, which implies that the truth telling is not a mandatory burden that every patient must endure but rather a stage-like process delivered by a healthcare provider and guided by the patient.

I believe as a profession it is important for all psychologists to have a set of standards that all individuals should strive to meet, for this profession it is the APA Code of Ethics. Having all psychologists aspire to an ethical code gives all psychologists a sense of unity, this is particularly important when the field is so vast and includes so many different careers, especially those in the helping profession. Most importantly it is essential to have a set of ethical standards that must be followed whenever work is being completed with humans. I do not necessarily believe that one particular code of ethics would be better than another. For example, if psychologists instead followed the AU’s core values that would be acceptable so long

When looking at the IMA Statement of Ethical Professional Practice, there were some steps that Betty Vinson could have taken to avoid any of the punishments that were given to her. Before following any of the IMA’s recommended actions of recourse, Vinson should have referred to WorldCom’s recognized policies on ethical behavior and follow the actions that they have written and approved to take. If WorldCom’s executives still were demanding her to falsify the journal entries after following her company’s policy, then the IMA would state that she should have discussed the issue with your immediate supervisor or the next level of management if her supervisor was involved in the unethical activity.
