Accountability and Business Regulation in the UK
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the relationship between accountability and business regulation in the United Kingdom. In short, regulations exist (ostensibly) to assure that organizations do the ethical and legal thing in their dealings with customers, other organizations, and the general public. Regulatory requirements are not put into place to assure that a bureaucracy is self-supporting and self-perpetuating but in order to either correct a wrong or prevent one from taking place.

Accounting at RUN, Inc.: Ethical Assessment
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing approaches to correcting at least three years' of "creative bookkeeping." CEO White's solution may not serve the letter of the law, but it does serve its intent.

Though the new Controller would have rectified the errors by taking a different path, he can be assured that what he is about to do is indeed ethical. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
