Ethics are in the accounting field. I knew ethics were required, but I
did not realize how deep it went. While completing the final project
throughout the milestones, I found it very interesting how companies
went about committing fraud. It was interesting to see the “logic”
behind the company’s actions. I have realized simply how vital an
understanding of ethics is within the accounting field.
The entire course is relevant to me because I intend to pursue a
career in the accounting field, so I feel it is extremely beneficial to
being the best accountant I can be. I will have the skills required to
act the most ethically and with the interest of regulation and
standards rather than just the client.
Overall, I have really enjoyed the course as I learned the regulations
and standards that accountants follow to act ethically. It has been
very interesting!
a current issue of The CPA Journal called "SEC Enforcement Actions
Support Critical Skills Based Ethics Training". You will also notice that
the your textbook author, Steven Mintz, is referred to as "an expert
in ethics education"!
