AAA – May 2022 – L3 – Q4 – Ethical Issues in Auditing

Discuss correspondence with previous auditors, reasons for change in appointments, and client identification under AML regulations.

The idea to incorporate Peters & Shamsudeen Haulages Limited was mooted in London and it was incorporated on the return of Alhaji Shamsudeen to Nigeria. He met Peters during his stay in the UK. They had a good relationship which started in a coffee shop. As they met regularly in this shop, what to do on Alhaji Shamsudeen’s return to Nigeria became the subject of discussion. Based on their experiences, the idea of Peters & Shamsudeen Haulages Limited was birthed. Alhaji Shamsudeen subsequently returned to Nigeria, incorporated the company, obtained the appropriate expatriate quota, and Mr. Peters came in and started running the company.

On commencement, Sejumade Uzoma & Co was appointed the company’s external auditors. Whilst Mr. Peters was around, there was a good working relationship between the company and the audit firm.

After about nine years, Mr. Peters returned to the UK, leaving the company in the hands of Alhaji Shamsudeen. Subsequently, Sejumade Uzoma & Co started receiving complaints from Alhaji Shamsudeen and his key accounting staff. These complaints were rife even before the ninth month of the current year that Sejumade Uzoma & Co. decided not to continue with the engagement. The audit fee for the previous year had about thirty percent outstanding at this stage.

This was the position when Alhaji Shamsudeen approached your partner at Musa, Edewo & Co. (Chartered Accountants). Their discussion was fruitful for your firm, hence it was agreed by the partners that full professional procedures would be applied as normal. Part of the information available on interaction is that the year is almost ending, and there was uncertainty about the firm that will do the audit before the engagement of your firm. You have the responsibility of assisting your partner in ensuring that proper documentations would be done without any compromise.

Required:

a. According to professional requirements, discuss the issues your firm is expected to address in her correspondence with Sejumade Uzoma & Co. (10 Marks)

b. Evaluate the various circumstances that would lead to change in professional appointment. (5 Marks)

c. In consideration of the client, analyze the procedures necessary for proper client identification in accordance with anti-money laundering requirements. (5 Marks)

AAA – Nov 2012 – L3 – SB – Q1 – Ethical Issues in Auditing

This case examines ethical issues in auditing related to fraudulent practices in a company involved in human trafficking.

You have just been appointed the Auditor of Sheerahmog Manufacturing Company Limited, which manufactures 2.0 ml syringes specifically used by veterinary doctors. Recently, it was discovered that the 2.0 ml syringes are used on human beings due to the shortage of syringes for human use.

The Federal Government has decided to phase out the 2.0ml syringe in the next three years. In order to diversify into production of carbonated water, the Finance Director suggested that the company approach a bank for a complementary N1.26 billion required to finance the diversification program.

In spite of their proposal and cashflow to Bank of Akowonjo Plc, which was described as being fantastic, their loan application was not granted. As a result, the company is likely to go into liquidation with its numerous staff disengaged, if viable alternative is not provided to raise the required fund.

In carrying out the analysis of the sources of funds at the end of the year under review, you found that the company made much money from human trafficking to enable it accomplish the proposed plan of diversification.

At the next meeting with management of the company, you brought your findings to their knowledge and threatened to disclose it as an extraordinary item in the income schedule. Management frowned at it and were considering reviewing your appointment including fee which is currently 52% of your annual income.

Required:
a. Identify the ethical issues involved as they relate to the auditor. (2 Marks)
b. What are the THREE elements of fraudulent practices presented in this case? (6 Marks)
c. What are the safeguards for the ethical issues identified? (4 Marks)
d. List the issues that should be brought to the attention of the company by the auditors as regards the disclosure of the illegal act. (3 Marks)

CR – May 2024 – L3 – SC – Q7 – Presentation of Financial Statements (IAS 1)

Discuss allocation impacts of purchase price for land and warehouse on earnings and identify ethical issues in CFO’s approach.

Signal PLC purchased land and warehouse for N90,000,000. The warehouse is expected to last for 20 years and to have a salvage value equal to 10% of its cost. The Chief Finance Officer (CFO) and the Chief Accountant (CA) discussed the allocation of the purchase price between the land and the warehouse. The CFO believes that the largest amount possible should be assigned to the land because that will improve reported net income in the future. Depreciation expense will be lower because land is not depreciated. He suggested allocation of one third of the cost to the land. The CA argues that the smallest amount possible, about one-fifth of the purchase price, should be allocated to the land, thereby saving income taxes, since the depreciation will be greater if lesser amount is allocated to land.

Required:

(a) Evaluate how the different allocations of one-third and one-fifth to land will affect reported earnings and determine how the purchase cost should be allocated. (8 Marks)

(b) Identify and discuss inherent ethical issues in the CFO’s submission in the above scenario. (7 Marks)

MGE – Nov 2014 – L2 – Q1 – Corporate Governance

Ethical and governance issues in appointing auditors with familial ties to company management.

ROC Company Plc. manufactures aluminium (stainless) household equipment. Its plant is located by Alobe river, which is the source of water for the community. The company currently has the largest share of the market on the West African Coast and plans to expand its operations to East African and South African markets.

At the 26th Annual General Meeting (AGM), shareholders approved the appointment of Adeola & Partners as External Auditors to the company. The Managing Partner of Adeola & Partners, Sir Segun Adeola, is a nephew of the Managing Director of ROC Company Plc. The appointment of Adeola & Partners as External Auditors to ROC Company was facilitated by the Managing Director, who did not disclose his relationship with Sir Segun Adeola to the company’s board.

At a recent board meeting, the Managing Director of ROC expressed concern that so much resources were expended towards satisfying the interest of the community at the expense of the company’s shareholders. According to him, shareholders are the primary stakeholders of the company, and their interest should be given the highest priority. He further opined that although other stakeholders are important to the company but only to the extent that ROC needs them. Consequently, the board resolved that henceforth, the company should not spend more than 0.5% of its Profit After Tax (PAT) on other stakeholders.

At the peak of the company’s production cycle, one of its underground waste tanks ruptured, and a large quantity of chemical waste leaked into Alobe river. This led to the destruction of aquatic life and contamination of neighbouring farmlands. This catastrophic event devastated the community as many farmers and fishermen lost their sources of livelihood. The community’s major source of drinking water was also contaminated.

The leadership of Alobe River Community Association approached the management of ROC Company Plc. and requested them to pay huge sums as compensation to the affected people and also to construct ten bore holes for the community. The management, however, informed the community leaders that based on the resolution of their board, expenditure on the issue would be limited to only 0.5% of profit after tax at the end of the year, which was projected to be far less than the amount of compensation demanded by the community. As a result, all discussions with the leadership of the community broke down.

The youths of the community responded with a sit-in protest, leading to a blockade of the company’s gate and disruption of its operations. The board of the company is now seeking immediate and amicable resolution of this problem.

While this was going on, the company suffered a major fire outbreak in its second factory, destroying its main furnace, machines and a large quantity of its finished goods. Some of the workers were severely burnt while attempting to put out the fire at the factory’s major warehouse. This event culminated in production shutdown at the second factory and temporary disengagement of several skilled workers as well as some casual staff. Fortunately, the company is covered by comprehensive fire and workers compensation insurance policies with Nagode Risk and Life Assurance Plc.

Required:
a. As a Strategic Risk Consultant of ROC Company Plc. you are to evaluate the adequacy of the risk management processes, including its information and communication systems. (8 Marks)

b. Evaluate the company’s residual risks in contrast to the management’s risk appetite. (7 Marks)

c. Using the stakeholders theory, evaluate the Managing Director’s position. Are there other stakeholders important to the company? (9 Marks)

d. Identify and discuss the ethical issues involved in the scenario described above. (6 Marks)

Poles Apart Limited was established two years ago and provides mobile phone service for individuals and businesses. The system established by the company comprises:

  2. The mobile phones can be used within the range of a local relay station that receives and sends calls to the mobile phone.
  3. The local relay stations are linked to a central computer that connects the calls to other users, often through a computer telephone network.
  4. Currently, the local relay stations cover one large city with a population of about 1,000,000. In the next year, the system will expand to all cities in Nigeria with populations over 250,000. By 2017, it will cover all motorways and cities with populations over 100,000, which will involve substantial capital expenditure and require additional borrowings.

Evaluate compliance with IFAC’s Code of Ethics in two audit scenarios.

You are an audit manager with Kwabotwe & Co, a firm of Chartered Accountants. You have been assigned to handle the firm’s quality control in the first quarter. In your first meeting, you invited staff to raise matters from their experience relating to their compliance with IFAC’s code of ethics. The following issues came up:

(5 marks)

ii) Kwabotwe & Co was recently approached by a large company that was not an audit client at the time, for a second opinion on the audit of the financial statements. The company was in dispute with its existing auditors, who were proposing to issue a qualified audit opinion due to disagreement over inventory valuation. Kwabotwe & Co’s technical partner reviewed the evidence provided by the company and advised that its accounting treatment was in order. Shortly afterward, Kwabotwe & Co was invited to accept nomination as auditors. However, the reply to the letter of inquiry to the existing auditors made it clear that the inventory valuation dispute was not as straightforward as the company had made it out to be.
(5 marks)

Required:
Evaluate whether Kwabotwe & Co had complied with IFAC’s Code of Ethics or had acted unprofessionally in any way with respect to each of the above scenarios.

CR – May 2019 – L3 – Q5b – Regulatory framework and ethics

The question requires identifying and discussing the ethical issues arising from conflicts of interest, board dynamics, and related party transactions within Bolgatanga Ltd and how to address them appropriately.

Bolgatanga Ltd (Bolgatanga), currently operating in the biotechnology research and healthcare sector, is a Ghanaian listed company which prepares financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) up to 31 December each year. On 1 January 2015, Bolgatanga acquired 80% interest in Wa Ltd (Wa). You are a newly qualified accountant at Bolgatanga and report directly to Mr. Dominic Atubiga, the Financial Controller (FC). Early 2017, Bolgatanga acquired Sissala Ltd (Sissala), a private company, and has recently had an application for additional funds rejected from its current bankers on the basis that there are insufficient assets to offer security.

You have been reviewing the minutes of Bolgatanga’s last board meeting, dated 28 December 2017. The minutes indicate that the sales director resigned on 1 December 2017. In her resignation letter to the board, the sales director states that she can no longer work with Dominic Atubiga, who is dominating the board and allowing a close friendship with, and advice from, Salifu Adams (Managing Director of Sissala) to compromise his judgement.

The Human Resources department is currently in the process of recruiting a new sales director. Dominic Atubiga tells the board that, in the interim, the marketing department will just have to cope until a replacement sales director is appointed. Speaking to other staff in Bolgatanga, you have become aware that the wife of the Managing Director of Bolgatanga is a partner in Brother and Co., a firm of solicitors which the company uses to provide legal advice in relation to the market development activities of Wa. However, Brother and Co. has confirmed that the FC’s wife works in a different division and that she has no involvement in the services provided. It is your understanding that legal fees of GH¢500,000 (included in administration expenses) were paid by Bolgatanga to Brother and Co. during the year ended 31 December 2017.

Required:
Discuss the ethical issues arising from the information provided, and the appropriate steps to address them.
