Diamond Computers, which is owned and operated by Dale Diamond, manufactures and sells different types of computers. The company has reported profits every year since its inception in 2002 and has applied for a bank loan near the end of 2021 to upgrade manufacturing facilities. These upgrades should significantly boost future productivity and profitability.
In preparing the financial statements for the year, the chief accountant, Sandy Walters, mentions to Dale that approximately $80,000 of computer inventory has become obsolete and a write-down of inventory should be recorded in 2021.
Dale understands that the write-down would result in a net loss being reported for company operations in 2021. This could jeopardize the company’s application for the bank loan, which would lead to employee layoffs. Dale is a very kind, older gentleman who cares little for his personal wealth but who is deeply devoted to his employees’ well-being. He truly believes the loan is necessary for the company’s…

- James Wright is the chief financial officer (CFO) for The Butcher Block, a major steakhouse restaurant chain. As CFO, James has the final responsibility for all aspects of financial reporting. James tells investors that The Butcher Block should post earnings of at least $1 million. In examining the preliminary year-end numbers, James notices that earnings are coming in at $950,000. He also is aware that The Butcher Block has been depreciating most of its restaurant equipment over a five-year useful life. He proposes to change the estimated useful life for a subset of the equipment to a useful life of seven, rather than five, years. By depreciating over a longer useful life, depreciation expense will be lower in the current year, increasing earnings to just over $1 million. It looks like The Butcher Block is going to exceed earnings of $1 million after all. Do you think James Wright’s change in the depreciable life of assets is ethical? What concerns might you have?arrow_forwardYou are in the process of completing the gathering of sufficient appropriate evidence for Top Stove Corporation, a company engaged in the manufacture and sale of kerosene space heaters.

In 2018, while continuing to teach one section of Business Ethics, she established Virtue Ltd.

While the company experienced a net operating loss of $128,000 in the fiscal period ending December 31, 2018, VL experienced rapidly increasing sales during 2019.
