Barbara Whitley had great expectations about her future as she sat in her graduation ceremony in May 2010

4-28 Barbara Whitley had great expectations about her future as she sat in her graduation ceremony in May 2010. She was about to receive her Master of Accountancy degree, and next week she would begin her career on the audit staff of Green, Thresher & Co., CPAs. Things looked a little different to Barbara in February 2011. She was working on the audit of Delancey Fabrics, a textile manufacturer with a calendar year- end. The pressure was enormous. Everyone on the audit team was putting in 70- hour weeks, and it still looked as if the audit wouldn’t be done on time. Barbara was doing work in the property area, vouching additions for the year. The audit program indicated that a sample of all items over $ 20,000 should be selected, plus a judgmental sample of smaller items. When Barbara went to take the sample, Jack Bean, the senior, had left the client’s office and couldn’t answer her questions about the appropriate size of the judgmental sample. Barbara forged ahead with her own judgment and selected 50 smaller items. Her basis for doing this was that there were about 250 such items, so 50 was a reasonably good proportion of such additions. Barbara audited the additions with the following results: The items over $ 20,000 contained no misstatements; however, the 50 small items contained a large number of misstatements. In fact, when Barbara projected them to all such additions, the amount seemed quite significant. A couple of days later, Jack Bean returned to the client’s office. Barbara brought her work to Jack in order to apprise him of the problems she found and got the following response: “ Gosh, Barbara, why did you do this? You were only supposed to look at the items over $ 20,000 plus 5 or 10 little ones. You’ve wasted a whole day on that work, and we can’t afford to spend any more time on it. I want you to throw away the schedules where you tested the last 40 small items and forget you ever did them.”
When Barbara asked about the possible audit adjustment regarding the small items, none of which arose from the first 10 items, Jack responded, “ Don’t worry, it’s not material anyway. You just forget it; it’s my concern, not yours.’’ a. In what way is this an ethical dilemma for Barbara? b. Use the six- step approach discussed in the book to resolve the ethical dilemma.

R&J Associates leased certain commercial real estate from T&C Associates, Inc., for a one-year period beginning May 1

R&J Associates leased certain commercial real estate from T&C Associates, Inc., for a one-year period beginning May 1. The lease required that T&C give R&J 10 days’ notice before canceling the lease. R&J operated the leased premises as a bar that featured seminude dancers but discontinued the business during the following March when it lost a necessary dance permit. In late March and early April, T&C noticed that the bar was not open and learned that R&J had lost its permit. R&J was behind on its rent at this time. Utility companies were seeking to shut off service to the premises because R&J was also behind on its utility bills. When T&C informed R&J that its monthly rent would be higher if it renewed the lease, R&J said it had no interest in renewing. For the above reasons, T&C took possession of the premises in April. T&C, however, did not give R&J the 10 days’ notice referred to in the lease. T&C leased the premises to a new tenant later that month. At approximately the same time, R&J demanded the return of certain personal property items it had left on the premises. T&C told R&J to contact the new tenant, adding that there should be no problem with the return of the items of personal property. R&J contacted the new tenant, who told R&J to submit a list of its personal property because other parties were also claiming rights to what had been left on the premises. R&J did not submit this list and did not contact T&C again about the personal property items. Later, R&J sued T&C for conversion of the personal property. Did R&J have a valid conversion claim?
