*Since the software is for tracking inventory, the cost would be
associated with production. It would therefore likely be
classified as part of manufacturing overhead, an inventoriable
cost. However, some companies might consider the software
an administrative cost, which would be a period cost.

Providing earnings information to your brother before it is publicly announced violates the confidentiality standard.
Stealing from your employer is a violation of the integrity standard.
Skipping continuing education sessions could violate the requirement to maintain professional competence. If your company paid for you to attend the conference, skipping the sessions also violates the integrity standard.
Failing to read the specifications of the software package before purchasing it violates the competence standard.
Failing to provide job description information to management because you fear it may be used to cut a position in your department violates the credibility standard.

Req. 1
Although the amount is not large now, the repeated nature of the thefts means that they add up over time. Also, the repeated nature of the thefts increases the severity of Cory Loftus’ unethical behavior. A new employee who has engaged in repeated thefts is unlikely to become a valued and trusted employee. This type of behavior is unethical.
As controller, Mary Gonzales probably hired Cory, and she is also responsible for the lack of controls that permitted a new employee to commit this theft. However, this is no excuse for Cory’s unethical behavior. The controller should think carefully whether it is in her or the company’s interest to keep Cory. This incident also reflects poorly on Mary’s competence. She needs to learn from the experience and supervise the next bookkeeper more carefully.
Req. 2
The new information makes Mary’s decision more complex. Being new, she may want to discuss the situation with the company president. Even if the bookkeeper believed he was just “borrowing” the money, his behavior still is unethical. It will probably be difficult to confirm whether or not Cory did in fact repay money he had taken in the past. Another possibility is that Cory repaid the amounts and the previous controller turned a blind eye. Unless Mary can obtain additional clarifying information, one alternative would be to indicate to Cory that this behavior will not be tolerated in the future and to establish better controls and closer supervision.
Students’ responses will vary.

If the goods have been received, postponing recording of the purchase understates liabilities. This is unethical and inconsistent with the IMA standards even if the supplier agrees to delay billing.
The software has not been sold. Therefore, it would be inconsistent with the IMA standards to record it as sales.
Delaying year-end closing incorrectly records next year’s sales as this year’s sales. This is clearly unethical and inconsistent with the IMA standards.
The appropriate allowance for bad debts is a difficult judgment. The decision should not be driven by the desire to meet a profit goal. It should be based on the likelihood that the company will collect the debts. We cannot determine this without more information. However, since the company emphasizes earnings growth, which can lead to sales to customers with weaker credit records, reducing the allowance seems questionable. This strategy is not clear whether it is inconsistent with the IMA standards.
(continued) P 1-28A
If the maintenance is postponed, there is no transaction to record. This strategy is beyond the responsibility of the controller, so it does not violate IMA standards.
Strategies a, b, and c are clearly unethical and inconsistent with the IMA standards of integrity, objectivity, and perhaps competence. Strategy d is likely unethical, but we cannot be certain without more information. The controller should resist attempts to implement a, b, and c, and she should gather more information about d. If the president ignores Reinhardt’s concerns and still insists that these strategies be implemented, then Reinhardt needs to decide if she wants to work for a company that engages in unethical behavior.

If the invoicing is postponed for valid billings then it is inconsistent with the IMA standards.
The value of each individual sales return is not relevant. Failing to record sales returns and allowances will falsely inflate this year’s sales, so it is inconsistent with the IMA standards.
Delaying closing to improperly inflate sales is inconsistent with the IMA standards.
The appropriate allowance for bad debts is a difficult judgment. The allowance for bad debts should not be driven by the desire to meet a profit goal. It should be based on the collectibility of the accounts receivable. Without more information on the collectibility of accounts receivable, it is not clear whether this strategy would violate IMA standards.
(continued) P 1-34B
Postponing route monthly maintenance expenditures is a management decision and does not violate the IMA standards.
Strategies a, b and c are clearly unethical and violate the IMA standards of integrity, objectivity, and perhaps competence. Without more information, it is not clear whether strategy d violates the IMA standards. The controller should resist attempts to implement a, b and c and should gather more information about d. If the president ignores Tom’s concerns, then Tom needs to consider if she wants to work for a company that engages in unethical behavior.
