Auditing and Regulation DB
Ethical requirements vary for each state. Using the Internet, locate the Web site for the licensing board of the state in which you intend to apply for CPA licensure. Explore the site to determine if there are any specific requirements related to ethics. Explore the following Web site to help you find this information:
AICPA - American Institute of CPAs
In your Discussion Board post, you will list your chosen state and include the ethics requirements. Answer the following questions:
• What additional guidelines related to ethics are required to ensure consistency of CPAs across the nation?
• What are some examples of ethics violations?
• Why do you think these situations were considered unethical (i.e., what was wrong with the situation)?
In your own words, post a substantive response to the Discussion Board question(s) and comment on other postings. Your response should address the DB question(s) and move the conversation forward. You will be graded on the quality of your postings, including mastery of the concept as well as critical thinking. If asked for your opinion, do not simply state that it is a good or bad idea; elaborate on your reasons and argument. Include enough detail to substantiate your thinking as well as your position on the questions or comments.
