The goal of this assessment task is to test your knowledge and understanding of ethical and sustainability challenges faced by the accounting profession and apply best practice principles and recommendations related to appropriate business practice.

There are two parts of this assessment task: Part A relates to ethical dilemmas and PART B is about sustainability challenges. Each part is described below:

PART A: Ethical Dilemmas Issues and Solutions

Most accountants in business and the public sector, whether working in a small organisation or serving as the chief financial officer (CFO) of an international corporation, face ethical dilemmas during their professional careers. Ethical dilemmas come in many forms and accountants sometimes need support to address complex and challenging conflicts. Accountants may also treat ethical dilemmas as business decisions and not utilise their professional code to assess potential courses of action.

The CGMA survey report Managing Responsible Business, A Global Survey on Business Ethics shows that a 10%-15% increase since 2008 in organisations providing both statements of ethical values and a code of ethics, as well as related training, provision of hotlines, and incentives, such as performance-based rewards. The survey also shows an almost 20% increase in organisations both collecting and reporting ethical information. The majority of accountants feel it is important to collect and analyse ethical information, but one in five do not believe their organisation will do so in the near future. Despite an increase in ethical codes and training, there is greater pressure within organisations to act unethically. Security of information remains the biggest issue of concern across all markets. Bribery has risen from sixth to third in the rankings of issues of concern, reflected by the increase in anti-bribery and corruption legislation.

A common aspect to resolving ethical dilemmas is to help accountants define and apply the fundamental principles in their professional code of ethics. A distinguishing mark of the accountancy profession is the responsibility to act in the public interest and professional ethics places an expectation on accountants to self-regulate their behavior in accordance with the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) developed by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA). The International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) member organisations are required to abide by ethical standards at least as stringent as those stated in the Code.

These standards may potentially be threatened by a broad range of circumstances including self-interest, self-review, advocacy, familiarity, and intimidation. An awareness and understanding of these circumstances will help us to establish which fundamental principles are affected by a situation and why.

Required:

Identify and describe THREE (3) ethical dilemmas after systematically reviewing recent media articles/postings/legislations/reports/journal articles/broadcast or social media. Gather the relevant facts and for each issue describe: why it is an ethical problem; Identify the affected parties -individuals, organisations and key stakeholders affected; in what way are they affected; how would these ethical issues affect the reputation of the accounting profession; how would these ethical issues affect the public interest; propose solution to each ethical issue and describe which fundamental principles are affected and what are the threats to compliance with the following fundamental principles of ethics developed by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA):

Integrity

Objectivity

Professional competence and due care

Confidentiality

Professional behaviour

While writing your essay consider the following threats to fundamental principles:

Self interest

Self-review

Advocacy

Familiarity

Intimidation

Are there safeguards which can eliminate or reduce the threats to an acceptable level? For examples safeguards can be created by: profession, legislation and regulation; work environment; organisation’s internal procedures and policies; whistleblowing procedure. (approximately 2,000 words length).

Today, we work in an environment of unprecedented diversity. While this can be challenging, learning to respect, value, and work effectively within this diversity is not only essential but also highly rewarding. This week, however, we are directing our attention to the differences of gender diversity. This is in no way to stereotype genders, however, there is a vast amount of research showing that fundamentally men and women communicated differently. There are great strengths in both approaches. There are also weaknesses. We need to value, include, and learn to collaborate using both approaches. Search the internet for scholarly studies and sources regarding gender communication. Please avoid pop psychology such as men are from Mars, women are from Venus type of material. Assignment #1 (1.5 pages), APA, 2 references: Please write 1.5 pages ONLY about how men communicate. What are the essential characteristics? What are the strengths of this collaborative/communication style? What are the weaknesses? How would only an understanding of only a male perspective negatively impact a collaborative venture? What did you learn, that you didnt know that changes the way you view this topic? If you have a real life example, please feel free to share. Assignment #2 (1.5 pages), APA, 2 references Second part (1.5 pages) ONLY write about how WOMEN communicate. What are the essential characteristics? What are the strengths of this collaborative/communication style? What are the weaknesses? How would only an understanding of only a female perspective negatively impact a collaborative venture? What did you learn, that you didnt know that changes the way you view this topic? If you have a real life example, please feel free to share. A minimum of two (2) professional references must be used to support your statements independently for MEN and WOMEN . This is not only a personal experience or opinion posting. There is a great deal of research on these topics in the scholarly literature.

What collaborative tools do you see as the most useful/effective to assist learners in learning or just in broad effective collaboration on projects? Why? Here is a prior Blog to a different but similar topic simply for reference: Topic Reflecting upon Behaviorism and computing enabled philosophical paradigm. What tools are you finding useful for getting learners to work on projects and problems in a problem-centric approach to learning? Behaviorism and Computing Enabled Philosophy The old fashioned way of learning, classroom-based learning, is being enriched or replaced by technological learning innovations that foster cooperation amongst learners and even between learners and teachers (Lytras et al., 2015). Technological learning is a great contribution to a new philosophical paradigm that promotes open, flexible and collaborative learning that goes beyond time, place, and personality constraints (Lytras et al., 2015). A number of digital education tools have been generated to give autonomy to students and to encourage collaborative learning. Furthermore, these tools facilitate communication between teachers and students. The most common modern digital tools for education that learners and teachers use include; Socrative, Edmodo, Projeqt, TED-Ed, Thinglink, eduClipper amongst others. The choice of the tools that I would use in education learning would be influenced by the conditions of the classroom, the budget constraints, equitable access by all students and teachers, the schools improvement plan and the sustainability of the said technology in terms of ease to use, minimal training, and ease to integrate or even its application to several subjects. There are three existing philosophical approaches that influence the use of technology education; content, process and method philosophy (Lytras et al., 2015). Content philosophy views technology learning as a well-defined categorization of knowledge that relates to industries and technologies like communication, construction, manufacturing, and transportation that are key subjects of study for learners. On the hand, process philosophy regards technology education as an encouragement to competences in solution design and problem-solving. Lastly, the method philosophy sees technology education as a form of constructional activities where learners manipulate tools and materials to make products thus learn about science, social studies and other subjects. My philosophical view on technology education supports the process philosophy, that it is a means by which learners develop competences on solving problems and coming up with solution designs. This would make me encourage computing enabled philosophical paradigm. Reference Lytras, M. D., Mathkour, H. I., Abdalla, H., Al-Halabi, W., Yanez-Marquez, C., & Siqueira, S. W. M. (2015).
