Issue: Over the past two years, Kermit Stone, the controller of Hilton Company, has been concerned that the company has been paying a large amount of money for state unemployment taxes. On reviewing the “unemployment file” with the head accountant, Deborah Murtha, he learns that the company’s tax rate is near the top of the range of the state’s experience-rating system. After calling the local unemployment office, Stone realizes that the turnover of employees at Hilton Company has had an adverse effect on the company’s tax rates. In addition, after consulting with Murtha, he discovers that the eligibility reports that come from the state unemployment office are just signed and sent back to the state without any review. The eligibility reports are notices that an ex-employee has filed a claim for unemployment benefits. By signing these reports “blindly,” the company, in effect, tells the state that the employee is eligible for the benefits. Any benefits paid are charged by the…

Issue: Reed Kohler is in his final year of employment as controller for Quality Sales Corporation; he hopes to retire next year. As a member of top management, Kohler participates in an attractive company bonus plan. The overall size of the bonus is a function of the firm’s net income before bonus and income taxes—the larger the net income, the larger the bonus.
Due to a slowdown in the economy, Quality Sales Corporation has encountered difficulties in managing its cash flow. To improve its cash flow by reducing cash payments for income taxes, the firm’s auditors have recommended that the company change its inventory costing method from FIFO to LIFO. This change would cause a significant increase in the cost of goods sold for the year. Kohler believes the firm should not switch to LIFO this year because its inventory quantities are too large. He believes that the firm should work to reduce its inventory quantities and then switch to LIFO (the switch could be made in a year or…
