Quatrième de couverture

The many accounting scandals involving high–profile companies, suchas Enron, WorldCom, Arthur Andersen, and Parmalat, have called intoquestion accounting practices and have undermined public confidencein the accounting and auditing professions.

Accountants in professional practice face many technical andethical challenges and in order to act appropriately, they needboth technical and ethical competences. Accountants are guided bystandards and supported by professional societies, legislation, andregulatory bodies.  Adherence to these principles andcompliance to the rules of practice include both a technical and anethical dimension; Accounting Ethics will help preparestudents for their future careers by developing both of theseskills.

• Apply technical competences and knowledge through the provisionof exercises and cases.
• Identify moral issues in accounting situations and subsequentlydemonstrate moral reasoning and make moral judgments (actethically).
• Navigate the process of ethical decision making by use of adecision model to structure the chapter material.
