Your client is preparing financial statements to show the bank. You know that he has incurred a refrigeration repair expense during the month, but you see no such expense on the books. When you question the client, he tells you that he has not yet paid the 1,255 bill. Your client is on the accrual basis of accounting. He does not want the refrigeration repair expense on the books as of the end of the month because he wants his profits to look good for the bank. Is your client behaving ethically by suggesting that the refrigeration repair expense not be booked until the 1,255 is paid? Are you behaving ethically if you agree to the clients request?

It is February 16, 2020, and you are auditing Davenport Corporation's financial statements for 2019 (which will be issued in March 2020). You read in the newspaper that Travis Corporation, a major customer of Davenport, is in financial difficulty. Included in Davenports accounts receivable is 50,000 (a material amount) owed to it by Travis. You approach Jim Davenport, president, with this information and suggest that a reduction of accounts receivable and recognition of a loss for 2019 might be appropriate. Jim replies, Why should we make an adjustment? Ted Travis, the president of Travis Corporation, is a friend of mine; he will find a way to pay us, one way or another. Furthermore, this occurred in 2020, so lets wait and see what happens; we can always make an adjustment later this year. Our 2019 income and year-end working capital are not that high; our creditors and shareholders wouldnt stand for lower amounts than they already are. Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, prepare a response to Jim Davenport regarding this issue.

A local bank reviewed its credit-card policy with the intention of recalling some of its credit cards. In the past, approximately 5% of cardholders defaulted, leaving the bank unable to collect the outstanding balance. Hence, management established a prior probability of 0.05 that any particular cardholder will default. The bank also found that the probability of missing a monthly payment is 0.20 for customers who do not default. Of course, the probability of missing a monthly payment for those who default is 1. Given that a customer missed a monthly payment, compute the posterior probability that the customer will default. The bank would like to recall its credit card if the probability that a customer will default is greater than 0.20. Should the bank recall its credit card if the customer misses a monthly payment? Why or why not?

You are the accountant for Speedy Company and are preparing the financial statements for 2019. Near the end of 2019, Speedy loaned its president 100,000 (a material amount) because she was having financial difficulties. The note was properly recorded as a note receivable by Speedy. You are unsure of how to classify this note on the 2019 ending balance sheet and ask the president when the note is due. She replies, We never really set a due date; I might repay it in 2020 or maybe in a couple of years when I get more financially secure. It would be best to classify this note as a current asset in the usual manner because that will increase our working capital and current ratio, which will make our creditors and shareholders happy. Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, what do you think of the presidents suggestion?
