Accounting Ethics Case Study
Honesty and fairness are a large concern when it comes to investors in the financial

world. This is why The Sarbane Oxley Act of 2002 was implemented to protect them by making

sure that the quality and accuracy of financial information they receive from an organization is

honest and fair. The FASB or Financial Accounting Standards Board helps to guide companies

into implementing new standards into their system and financial statements when new standards

are put into place. The implementation date is usually twelve months from the date of issuance,

but early implementation is encouraged(FASB, n.a.). One of the largest and most important parts

of accounting is the topic of ethics. When using ethics and implementation guidelines a business

will have great success. Ethics act as an important element when accurate and reliable

information is passed on to users when implementing new standards.

When examining a case study, ethical issues, affected parties, immoral behavior, and the

pros of early implementation will need to be reviewed. Becky Hoger, controller, discusses with

her financial vice president the need for early implementation of a standard that would result in a

fairer presentation of the company’s financial condition and earnings. The financial vice

president determines that early implementation of the standard will adversely affect the reported

net income for the year, he discourages Hoger from implementing the standard until it is

required.

Ethical and unethical issues can be revealed upon opinion when analyzing already ethical

issues. The vice president might find that the profits are affected and that is the reasoning for his

decision to hold off on the implementation of the new standards. This might be an ethical issue

because it will change the way one might see the profit of the company. Some may say that these

standards remain ethical because they are not yet required to switch to the new standards right

away, due to the FASB encouraging organizations to start implementing early but not requiring it
