- Case Study You have applied for a public relations (PR) position with a RM 10.2 million savings and loan association, a conservative financial institution that has been in existence for over 50 years. The organization has never employed a PR person before. Now that its assets have risen above 10 million, however, the president of the institution feels it is time to hire someone to ‘do the PR’. During an interview, the president admits he is not sure what PR is, but he is fairly sure he wants the person he hires to plan promotions and stage events that will attract new customers, write stories that will get free space and time in the local media and start an employee publication. The president also states that he is open to suggestions about the position and asks you to explain how you would establish a professional, effective PR program if you were hired.arrow_forwardBob Jacobs wishes to expand his business and has borrowed $100,000. As a condition for making this loan, the bank requires that the business maintain a current ratio of at least 1.50. Business has been good but not great. The expansion costs have brought the current ratio down to 1.20 in the middle of December. Bob, as the owner of the business, is considering what might happen if he reports a current ratio of 1.4 to the bank. One possible action for Bob is to record in December $10,000 of revenue that the business will earn in January of next year.

Discuss whether it is ethical to record the revenue transaction in December. Identify the accounting principle relevant to this situation. and give the reasons underlying your conclusion. Propose an ethical action for Bob Jacobs.arrow_forwardYou are considering purchasing shares in Telstra.

- Assume that you are the controller of a business that provides legal services to clients. Suppose that the company has had a tough year, so the revenues have been lagging behind, based on previous years’ standards. What would you do if your boss (the chief executive officer [CEO] of the company) asked to reclassify a transaction to report loan proceeds of $150,000 as if the cash came from service fee revenue from clients instead. Would following the CEO’s advice impact the company’s accounting equation? How would reclassifying this one transaction change the outcome of the balance sheet, the income statement, and the statement of retained earnings? Would making this reclassification change the perception that users of the financial statements would have of the company’s current year success and future year potential?
