In this course, students will study and discuss issues of professional integrity and ethical reasoning, objectivity, independence, and how these elements are matched to real-world situations. Extensive use of case studies allows students to apply their understanding to realistic scenarios. Accounting within the context of corporate management, the AICPA s Code of Professional Conduct, legal liabilities, the nature and the temptation of fraud, financial reporting, and international accounting issues are all examined.

You earned your CPA credential from the state of Louisiana; you applied and were accepted by the AICPA. After working in the field for years, you are now a qualified auditor and you recently joined Skitch, Maryland, and Anderson Accounting Firm (SM&A). Review the case study, and then answer the questions that follow. Case Study: Louisiana Gas Production and Operating Company (LGO) This year, Louisiana Gas Production and Operating Company was preparing for the end of year audit plan, procedures and opinion for the annual 10K report. SM&A was selected as the public audit firm to prepare the annual audit plan, assessment, audit procedures and opinion. LGO is trading on NASDAQ for $9.00 per share. Two years ago, LGO had a $25.00 per share value. LGO has a market float value of $100 million. The main stockholders are pension funds, state retirement funds, hedge funds in the oil sector, and thousands of individual stockholders. Last year, LGO had earnings per share (EPS) of $2.00 and paid cash dividend of $1.50 per share. The company has been under tremendous pressure to raise the stock price. However, the oil and gas marketplace has been very difficult, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) at $47.00 per barrel, and the natural gas well price at $3.05 cubic foot at Henry Hub in Louisiana. Henry Hub has nine major gas pipelines converging to supply gas at the location in Louisiana. Most of this natural gas product is shipped by LGN to the North East. LGO mostly has gas wells in the Haynesville Shale play area of Louisiana. Background of LGO top Leadership The Chairman of the Board is Alexander Fred, 65 years old. He has been with the company for 40 years and was part of original group of individuals that started the company. The CEO is Patrick Fred, 42, the son of the Chairman. The family owns 36% of all common stocks and 90% of preferred Stock A. The CFO, Melinda Jones, 38, is a CPA who has been with the company since she was 22 years. Ms. Jones worked her way up through the organization. She is well liked by Mr. Alexander Fred. Ms. Jones is a member of the AICPA and the State of Louisiana CPA organization.

James and Alexander were roommates in their university days. He is on the BOD. Audit committee: Mr. Bill Fideo, 27, is the financial expert on committee. Just joined the board less than six months ago. He has never been a member of the board of director (BOD) or been on the audit committee with any company. He is currently on the BOD. He earned his CPA from North Louisiana Tech. Public Audit Firm: Skitch, Maryland, & Anderson Office Location: New Orleans, Louisiana. The Partner in Charge is Mrs. Loise Maryland, who has 25 years of experience in the oil and gas industry. The Accounting Audit Supervisor assigned to LGO is Mrs. Sarah Diamond. She has audit experience with 15 years in the petroleum marketplace. The audit accountants assigned to the client, LGO, are Ms. Lisa Lang, with two years of experience; Mr. Andy Anderson, 18 months of experience; and Mr. Arnold Hernandez, one year of experience. SM&A won the bid process to perform the audit of LGO. This bid was extremely competitive between five firms. The partners with the public accounting firm are hoping to have LGO for the next five years. The public accounting firm has been losing customers to regional accounting firms in the last three years. Mrs. Loise Maryland lives in a 5,000-sq. foot home on County Hill Country Club. Her husband loves to play golf. He does not have employment with any firm. Mrs. Sarah Diamond loves working for Mrs. Loise Maryland. She would do anything for her. They are extremely close. Situation This year s audit plan started well, with cooperation between management and the audit firm. However, during the first quarter review, revenue numbers appeared to be higher with the vertical and horizontal analytics on previous quarters and the annual financial statement. The audit team meet to discuss the impact but could not find any negative or accounting entries earnings management numbers. Mrs. Maryland and Mrs. Diamond requested a meeting with Mrs. Melinda Jones, CFO. In the meeting, Mrs. Jones informed the audit team that everything was fine. They had booked some good sales in the quarter. LGO Management Behind the Scene Sales have been flat for this year compared to last year. Natural gas well prices are looking downward at Henry Hub. The average revenue gas well per cubic feet price in last year was $3.50. In this year, Henry Hub gas well price is around $3.05. Gas volume is only 5% higher. In a recent, closed meeting, Patrick Fred and Alexander Fred suggest to Mrs. Jones to be creative and aggressive in booking revenue. In this meeting, no record was kept of the conversation. Mrs. Jones said she knew what to do. Mr. Alexander Fred said the benefit of having revenue being positive would create a positive environment for the LGO stock versus other companies of similar size in the marketplace. In the meeting, Mrs. Jones said nothing about the integrity or duty to stockholders. She simply kept quiet on the issue. Questions 1.

Identify the issues, define your ethical decision-making model and ethical theory, explain the options and consequences, and pick the solution you would choose, and why, for the following situation: Sally, controller and CPA, has been working hard to finish the year-end financial statements for HighTech, Inc. HighTech, Inc. provides social media relationships between users by focusing on up-to-the-minute communications on events kind of like Instagram. This year is a critical year for the firm. The company is expected to make a profit after five years of product development and losses. In working to complete the year-end financials, Sally finds out that the figures are not logical. In fact, it seems that the company has overstated assets and income by $300 million. Based upon the short investigation that she has been able to complete, it seems that both the CEO and CFO have signed and approved some documents that have inflated the numbers. The documents indicate a realization and recording of the social media customer valuation of future sales into the present accounting period. Every social media customer for the firm generates advertising revenue equal to $5.00 per year. The documents indicate that the social media customer revenue for the year was increased to $7.00 per customer. The incremental revenue was booked on December 30. This lead to an increase in revenue of $300 million and accrual Long Term Account Receivable of $300 million. Sally is pressured by time (a filing deadline is tomorrow, to get the financial information finalized and printed for the shareholders meeting) and the following other considerations: The shareholders have been promised that an Initial Public Offering (IPO) of the company will be done within the next year. The original founders of the firm are looking at the coming year to issue the IPO. Morgan Stanley has been hired to provide the financial advice on the IPO issuance. The benefits to the stockholders are in the millions. Sally is a go-getter; she wants to succeed in the company. She sees herself as a CFO in the future. Sally has been with the company for five years. She was one of the first employees hired. She has had excellent annual performance reviews. Upper management sees Sally as part of the team. Sally is a CPA. She has joined the state CPA organization and the AICPA organization. She has viewed and passed the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct Certification. Sally has personal pressures since she recently bought a new $500,000 house using all her savings as a down payment, $100,000. Further, her husband recently has taken an unpaid leave from his job due to a difficult illness and medical bills are mounting. He fell at work and needed serious back surgery. He needs special nursing care during the day. Sally helps at night as much as she can. The banks have been patient in providing lending during the rough times but will declare the loans in default and demand immediate repayment if the numbers are not near breakeven. Answer the following questions: 1. Based on the above given information, what should Sally do? 2. What might be the duty of professional responsibility as a CPA and member of the AICPA? 3. What might Sally s responsibility to herself be to provide the highest work with integrity, honesty, trustworthy, and transparency? 4. Does Sally have a responsibility to her firm to follow the directions of the president? If yes or no, provide rationale. 5. What standard of rules might help Sally to complete the assignment? 6. What might be the consequences if Sally completes the financial statements within the timeframe and breakeven?
