Ethical Dilemma: Recognition Point and Ethical Considerations
C7. Business Application ▶ Robert Shah, a sales representative for Quality Office
Supplies Corporation, will receive a substantial bonus if he meets his annual sales goal.
The company’s recognition point for sales is the day of shipment. On December 31,
Shah realizes he needs sales of $2,000 to reach his sales goal and receive the bonus. He
calls a purchaser for a local insurance company, whom he knows well, and asks him to
buy $2,000 worth of copier paper today. The purchaser says, “But Robert, that’s more
than a year’s supply for us.” Shah says, “Buy it today. If you decide it’s too much, you
can return however much you want for full credit next month.” The purchaser says,
“Okay, ship it.” The paper is shipped on December 31 and recorded as a sale. On January 15, the purchaser returns $1,750 worth of paper for full credit (approved by Shah)

- Ethics and professional conduct in business Tonya Latirno is a certified public accountant (CPA) and staff accountant for Kennedy and Kennedy, a local CPA firm. It had been the policy of the firm to provide a holiday bonus equal to two weeks salary to all employees. The firms new management team announced on November 15 that a bonus equal to only one weeks salary would be made available to employees this year. Tonya thought that this policy was unfair because she and her co- workers planned on the full two-week bonus. The two-week bonus had been given for 10 straight years, so it seemed as though the- firm had breached an implied commitment. Thus, Tonya decided that she would make up the lost bonus week by working an extra six hours of overtime per week over the next five weeks until the end of the year. Kennedy and Kennedys policy is to pay overtime at 150% of straight time. Tonyas supervisor was surprised to see overtime being reported, because there is generally very little additional or unusual client service demands at the end of the calendar year. However, the overtime was not questioned, because firm employees are on the honor system in reporting their overtime. Discuss whether the firm is acting in an ethical manner by changing the bonus. Is Tonya behaving in an ethical manner?arrow_forwardEthics in Action Lucas Hunter, president of Simmons Industries Inc., believes that reporting operating cash flow per share on the income statement would be a useful addition to the companys just completed financial statements. The following discussion took place between Lucas Hunter and Simmons' controller, John Jameson, in January, after the close of the fiscal year: Lucas: Ive been reviewing our financial statements for the last year. I am disappointed that our net income per share has dropped by 10% from last year. This won't look good to our shareholders. Is there anything we can do about this? John. What do you means? The past is the past, and the numbers are in. There isnt much that can be done about it Our financial statements were prepared according to generally accepted accounting principles, and I dont see much leeway for significant change at this point. Lucan No, no. Ive not suggesting that we cook the books. But look at the cash flow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows. The cash flow from operating activities has increased by 20%. This is very good newsand. I might add, useful information. The higher cash flow from operating activities will give our creditors comfort. John. Well, the cash flow from operating activities is on the statement of cash flows, so I guess users will be able to see the improved cash flow figures there Lucas: This is true, but somehow I think this information should be given a much higher profile. I don't like this information being buried in the statement of cash flows. You know as well as I do that many users will focus on the income statement Therefore. I think we ought to include an operating cash flow per share number on the face of the income statementsomeplace under the earnings per share number In this way, users will get the complete picture of our operating performance. Yes, our earnings per share dropped this year, but our cash flow from operating activities improved! And all the information is in one place where users can see and compare the figures. What do you think? John I've never really thought about it like that before I guess we could put the operating cash flow per share on the income statement, underneath the earnings per share amount. Users would really benefit from this disclosure. Thanks for the ideaI'll start working on it. Lucas: Glad to be of service. How would you interpret this situation? Is John behaving in an ethical and professional manner?arrow_forwardExercise 9-18 (Algorithmic) (LO. 5) In 2020, the CEO of Crimson, Inc., entertains 7 clients at a skybox in Memorial Stadium for a single athletic event during the year.

The company has grown very rapidly. It is located in a large building near Chicago, Illinois. Jack Flanigan, the president of Quality, has hired you to perform an internal control review of the company. You conduct interviews of key employees, tour the operations, and observe various company functions. You discover the following: Quality has not changed its ordering procedures since it was formed eight years ago. Anyone in the company can prepare a purchase order and send it to the vendor without getting any managerial approval. When the invoice arrives from the vendor, it is compared only to the purchase order before authorizing payment. Quality does not have an organization chart. In fact, employees are encouraged to work on their own, without supervision.

Two years ago, the board of directors of Richmond approved a large-scale remodelling of its stores to attract a more upscale clientele.Before finalizing these plans, two stores were remodelled as a test. Linda Perlman, assistant controller, was asked to oversee the financial reporting for these test stores, and she and other management personnel were offered bonuses based on the sales growth and profitability of these stores. While completing the financial reports, Perlman discovered a sizable inventory of outdated goods that should have been discounted for sale or returned to the manufacturer. She discussed the situation with her management colleagues; the consensus was to ignore reporting this inventory as obsolete because reporting it would diminish the financial results and their bonuses.Required:1.

The model is partially completed; it includes all entities and relationships, but it does not include cardinalities or descriptions of the relationships (which would appear in diamonds on the connecting lines between entities). HIS sells replacement parts for packaging machinery to companies in several states. HIS accepts orders via telephone, fax, and mail. When an order arrives, one of the salespersons enters it as a sales order. The sales order includes the customers name and a list of the inventory items that the customer wants to purchase. This inventory list includes the quantity of each inventory item and the price at which HIS is currently selling the item. When the order is ready to ship, WIS completes an invoice and records the sale. Sometimes, inventory items that a customer has ordered are not in stock. In those cases, HIS will ship partial orders. Customers are expected to pay their invoices within 30 days. Most customers do pay on time; however, some customers make partial payments over two or more months. List each entity in the REA model, and identify it as a resource, event, or agent. Using Microsoft Visio, redraw the REA model to include the diamonds for each relationship and include an appropriate description in each diamond.
