I feel like option D is definitely a good practice, as increasing segregation of duties is important for internal controls, but I’m not sure if it’s one of the three correct answers.

I'm a bit confused about option C; rejecting a justified change seems counterintuitive, but I guess it depends on the context of the change.

This is a great question to test our understanding of accountant ethics. I'm confident I can identify the 3 correct actions that uphold the Code of Ethics. Resisting unethical revenue recognition, reporting conflicts, and accepting audit recommendations seem like the clear winners here.

I'm a bit confused by this question. There are a lot of options and I'm not sure which 3 would be considered the most ethical actions for an accountant. I'll need to re-read the question and think through each choice carefully.

Okay, I think I've got this. The accountant should resist pressure to recognize revenue prematurely, report conflicts of interest, and accept recommendations to improve internal controls. Those seem like the clear ethical choices here.

Mitigation is the obvious answer here. Management has identified a risk with the current supplier and is asking Harry to take action to address it by finding an alternative.
