- Assume that you are the controller of a business that provides legal services to clients. Suppose that the company has had a tough year, so the revenues have been lagging behind, based on previous years standards. What would you do if your boss (the chief executive officer [CEO] of the company) asked to reclassify a transaction to report loan proceeds of $150,000 as if the cash came from service fee revenue from clients instead. Would following the CEOs advice impact the companys accounting equation? How would reclassifying this one transaction change the outcome of the balance sheet, the income statement, and the statement of retained earnings? Would making this reclassification change the perception that users of the financial statements would have of the companys current year success and future year potential? Write a memo, detailing your willingness (or not) to embrace this suggestion, giving reasons behind your decision. Remember to exercise diplomacy, even if you must dissent from the opinion of a supervisor. Note that the challenge of the assignment is to keep your integrity intact, while also keeping your job, if possible.Justine is an accountant in the accounting department of Modern Industries, Inc.

- Mr. Bader is leaving the accounting practice to become the Finance Director of a client company. The ethical dilemma he is most likely to face would be a. Objectivity b. Integrity c. Professional Behavior d. ConfidentialitAssume that you are currently working as an accountant, and your manager has to take an unexpected sick leave. Because you did very well in your accounting classes, the Senior Accountant asks you to step up and help with the review of reconciliations. What would be your first step? Maybe you would dive right into it, assuming you would figure out what to do as you moved through all the existing reconciliations, or maybe you would ask for a copy of policies and procedures for this task if any exist, so you could find instructions without asking the Senior Accountant constantly what to do. In addition to reviewing reconciliations, you will need to review disclosures to financial statements. How would you know if all the necessary disclosures were prepared and contained correct information?Assume you are employed as the chief financial officer of a corporation and are responsible for preparation of the financial statements, including the adjusting process and preparation of the adjusted trial balance. The company is facing a slow year, and after your adjusting entries, the financial statements are accurately reflecting that fact. However, as you are discussing the matter with your boss, the chief executive officer (CEO), he suggests that you have the power to make further adjustments to the statements, and that you should use that power to “adjust” the profits and equity into a stronger position, so that investor confidence in the company’s prospects will be restored. Write a short memo to the CEO, stating your intentions about what you can and/or will do to make the financial statements more appealing. Be specific about any planned adjustments that could be made, assuming that normal period-end adjustments have already been reflected accurately in the financial…

The misleading financial statements appear in the company’s annual report, which was issued to banks and other creditors less than a month ago.

But, just so we set the record straight, we’ll adjust this year’s financial statements for last year’s misstatement. We can absorb that misstatement better in this year than in last year anyway!
