Buff Tech, Inc. sells computer components and plans to borrow some money to expand. The company has a 12/31 year-end. After reading about earnings management (refer back to Chapter 4), Bucky, the owner has decided he should try to accelerate some sales to improve his financial statement ratios. He has called his best customers and asked them to make their usual January purchases and take delivery of the goods by December 31. He told the customers he would allow them until the end of February to pay for the purchases, just as if they had made the purchases in January.

Note: For revenue recognition purposes, the performance obligation was satisfied by 12/31.

Question:

What are the ethical implications of this plan? What ratios will be improved by accelerating these sales? What about future implications?

When customers place orders on the company's Web site, the system checks to see if the items are in stock, issues a status message to the customer, and generates a shipping order to the warehouse, which send the shipping information to the manage receivable account module. The check status sends order data to the pending order file. The generate shipping order obtains the order data from pending order file and send the shipping order to the Warehouse. When the order is shipped, the customer is billed. A manage receivable account sends the bill to the customer. The customer sends the payment to manage receivable account module. The account receivable file is updated with accounting data. The system also produces various reports, such as inventory reports for Accounting.4.
