First, lets start with question #1. Discuss this question based on your own opinion. First meaningful post made within the first 3 days in the module:

1. What ethical business issues can you think of that has been in the news? In your opinion, why do you think it is important that financial accounting systems report performance fairly and factually?

Based on what you have learned in your research and readings, lets discuss the following. Begin this part of the discussion no later than Wednesday.

2. In what ways, might a financial report be biased or presented in an unfair manner?
3. If financials were NOT reported fairly and factually what do you think would happen, what are some implications to the organization (leadership), stakeholders (patients, payers)?
4. Pick one of the examples in the news we discussed earlier this week, what change in practice would you recommend to remedy the situation?
