As a new systems analyst at Premier Financial Services, you are getting quite an education. You report to Mary, the IT manager, who also chairs the systems review committee. Several months ago, the committee rejected a request from Jack, the finance director, for an expensive new accounts payable system, because the benefits did not appear to outweigh the costs. Yesterday, Mary’s boss called her in and asked her to reconsider Jack’s request, and to persuade the other members to approve it. Mary wanted to discuss the merits of the request, but he cut her off rather abruptly. Mary happens to know that Jack and her boss are longtime friends. Mary has confided in you. She is very uncomfortable about the meeting with her boss, and she believes that his request would undermine the integrity of the systems review process. Mary feels it would be unethical to grant preferred treatment just because a friendship is involved. She is thinking of submitting a request to step down as review committee…
Compensation and Benefits Administration You just finished analyzing information for the current compensation and benefits program information. You find that some changes should be made, as the majority of employees (you have 120 employees) are unhappy with what is being offered. In fact, the plan had not been revised in over fifteen years, making it dated and definitely ready for some changes. Here is the current PTO offering 1+ year 7 days 5+years 10 days 10+ years 14 days. Please assist with the following questions. Propose a new plan for the board of directors. The plan should be in the form of a table (spreadsheet), including PTO and other employees.
You are the IT director at Attaway Airlines, a small regional air carrier. You chair the company’s systems review committee, and you currently are dealing with strong disagreements about two key projects. The marketing manager says it is vital to have a new computerized reservation system that can provide better customer service and reduce operational costs. The vice president of finance is equally adamant that a new accounting system is needed immediately because it will be very expensive to adjust the current system to new federal reporting requirements. The VP outranks the marketing manager, and the VP is your boss. The next meeting, which promises to be a real showdown, is set for 9:00 a.m. tomorrow. How will you prepare for the meeting? What questions and issues should be discussed?
An Ethical Dilemma Jayla just landed an internship with Acme Incorporated in the payroll department. She was excited because these internships usually turned into a full time job after graduation. Jayla was hired by Deon, the head of the Payroll Department. He told her about their policies and stressed the need for maintaining strict confidentiality regarding employee salaries and pay scales. “Several years ago we had an intern who violated the confidentiality policy and was given a negative internship summary,” explained Deon. “I understand, sir,” Jayla responded. Jayla was determined to learn as much as she could about the job. She made sure she was always on time, followed all of the policies and procedures, and got along well with her co-workers. She started to feel like she fit in at Acme and dreamed of the day when she worked there permanently. However, one day while studying the books, Jayla began to notice abnormalities in one of the salespeople’s salary. Greg, one of the…

According to COSO, which of the following differences relevant to the risk-assessment process is most likely to exist bel large entity and a small entity? O A. O B. O C. O D. The CEO of a small entity is more likely than the CEO of a large entity to be attuned to risks arising from internal factors through hands-on involvement with all levels of personnel. The risk-assessment process in a small entity is more structured than in a large one because of the nature of some of the internal control components in a small entity. An owner-manager of a small entity will not normally learn about risks arising from external factors through direct contact with customers, suppliers, and other outsiders, whereas in large entities this process is part of the entity's primary way of identifying new risk. Risk assessment in a small entity, as opposed to that in a large entity, can be problematic to implement because the in- depth involvement of the CEO and other key managers is a conflict of interest…
Joy Pechum, CEO of California Anesthesiology Group (CAG), was sitting in her ofﬁce, preparing the agenda for the meeting of the board of directors to be held next Sunday. She thought about what to offer the board as an explanation for why she would spend $20,000 to deploy standardized project management methodology. At that moment the phone rang. She picked it up and heard the voice of Patrick, her VP of finance. He began, “Joy, I have a vendor invoice here. It shows that Dr. Squirrel had bought a computerized patient management system, costing $250,000. Its deployment would cost us another $250,000, i.e., a total of half a million dollars! All I want to know is whether you have approved it.” “No, I have not,” answered Joy hanging up angrily, trying to visualize the face of Dr. Squirrel, a big gun in the company, both as an anesthesiology expert and shareholder owner, when she tells the board about this purchase. OUR UNIQUE PRACTICE CAG is a for-proﬁt company of 200+ medical doctors…
