Question:
Read the case study “Arthur Andersen LLP” and answer the following question:
The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants is the primary professional association for certified public accountants. It has developed a Code of Professional Conduct that sets the standards of conduct for CPAs. People can file complaints about the ethical conduct of a CPA with the AICPA, which can levy sanctions and other penalties against its members.
Do you think that the unethical conduct at Andersen (and possibly other accounting firms) was the fault of the AICPA for not setting and enforcing higher ethical standards among its members? Explain.
