Problems (Group A)
P16-26A Applying ethical standards, management accountability
Learning Objective 1
Natalia Wallace is the new controller for Smart Software, Inc. which develops and sells education soft-
ware. Shortly before the December 31 fiscal year-end, James Cauvet, the company president, asks Wal-
lace how things look for the year-end numbers. He is not happy to learn that earnings growth may be
below 13% for the first time in the company’s five-year history. Cauvet explains that financial analysts
have again predicted a 13% earnings growth for the company and that he does not intend to disappoint
them. He suggests that Wallace talk to the assistant controller, who can explain how the previous con-
troller dealt with such situations. The assistant controller suggests the following strategies:
a. Persuade suppliers to postpone billing $13,000 in invoices until January 1.
b. Record as sales $115,000 in certain software awaiting sale that is held in a public warehouse.
c. Delay the year-end closing a few days into January of the next year so that some of the next year’s
sales are included in this year’s sales.
d. Reduce the estimated Bad Debts Expense from 5% of Sales Revenue to 3%, given the company’s
continued strong performance.
e. Postpone routine monthly maintenance expenditures from December to January.
Requirements
1. Which of these suggested strategies are inconsistent with IMA standards?
2. How might these inconsistencies affect the company’s stakeholders?
3. What should Wallace do if Cauvet insists that she follow all of these suggestions?
SOLUTION
Requirement 1
a. If the goods have been received, postponing recording of the purchases understates liabilities. This is
unethical and inconsistent with the IMA standards even if the suppliers agree to delay billing.
