CR – May 2018 – L3 – Q5b – Regulatory Framework and Ethics

Identify the ethical issue related to inventory adjustment and explain the Finance Manager’s course of action.

The Finance Manager of Integrity Sports, a Takoradi-based manufacturer and retailer of sporting goods, prepares quarterly accounts for his boss, the Finance Director. At the end of the first quarter of 2017, the Finance Manager identified that net assets were below the level required by a bank covenant that the company had entered into with Unique Bank. He therefore alerted the Finance Director to this. The following week, the Finance Manager identified that amended quarterly accounts had been sent to the bank by the Finance Director, in which the inventory figure had been increased. The same issue arose at the end of the second quarter of 2017, and again the Finance Manager noted that the accounts sent to the bank included a different inventory figure from those that he had prepared the previous week. The Finance Manager is sure that cut-off procedures and valuation were correctly adhered to and this was done under his supervision. He therefore asked the Finance Director why the figures had changed, and the Finance Director responded:

“The adjustment is just for some goods held at one of our customer’s retail premises – we missed it out from the stock count. Don’t worry, I’ve got it all in hand!”

The Finance Manager then reviewed the contract with the customer in question and noted that it clearly states that the customer will be supplied with goods as ordered and has no right of return in the case of unsold goods. He also noted that Integrity Sports has sold goods to this customer for a number of years on the same terms, and no adjustment has ever been made before. Both the Finance Manager and Finance Director are Chartered Accountants.

Required:
i) Explain why the inventory adjustment suggests an ethical issue. (6 marks)
ii) Explain FOUR courses of action that the Finance Manager should take in respect of the issue that he has identified. (4 marks)
