Accounting

(LCNRV) The net realizable value of Lake Corporation's inventory has declinedbelow its cost. Allyn Conan, the controller, wants to use the loss method to write down inventorybecause it more clearly discloses the decline in the net realizable value and does not distort thecost of goods sold. His supervisor, financial vice president Bill Ortiz, prefers the cost-of-goods-sold method to write down inventory because it does not call attention to the decline in netrealizable value.

Answer the following questions.

(a) What, if any, is the ethical issue involved?

(b) Is any stakeholder harmed if Bill Ortiz's preference is used?

(c) What should Allyn Conan do?
