Chapter 29: Ethics in Accounting

Working in the Real World

Ethics in any profession deals with what is right, fair, and compassionate. The Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) devotes a section of its web site to ethics at www.imanet.org/ima/sec.asp?TRACKID=&CID=84&DID=119. The organization's Statement of Ethical Professional Practice is presented, along with a link to an ethics hotline and articles on the topic.
