Answer:

  Total Liabilities  = $62.273 million  

Explanation:

<em>The accounting equation state that :</em>

Total assets = capital + liabilities.

<em>This is a fundamental relationship that underpins the preparation of financial statements</em>

<em>Capital for a company is represented by the shareholders funds which is the book value of issued common stock, share premium plus the retained earnings.</em>

So we can apply the equation to the figures of Chester Corporation

81.965  =( $2.540 + 17.152 ) + liabilities

Liabilities =  81.965  - ( $2.540 + 17.1552 )

                = $62.273 million

Total Liabilities  = $62.273 million

Answer:

Bribery in the world of business typically happens when an organization or representative of an organization gives financial benefits to an official to gain favor or manipulate a business decision - True.

Bribery is the giving or offering of items of value (especially money) to a government official in exchange for favorable treatment. Bribing is unethical and illegal, but it is common practice in many countries, so common that it is expected.

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act was implemented in the aftermath of disclosures that businesses were violating the IMA Code of Ethics - True.

In the seventies, U.S. Government investigations found that hundreds of U.S. companies operating abroad had turned to bribery in order to gain the favor of foreing officials. This conduct is related to the statement explained above: bribery is pervasive in many countries around the world.

Managers are required to follow specific rules issued by the IMA for internal financial reporting. - False.

The IMA Code of Ethics does not provide specific rules for financial reporting (these specific rules are found instead either in the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or in the or in the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)).

The IMA Code of Ethics instead provides principles, or ethical guidelines, to be followed by participants in the management accounting profession.

Ethics is more than obeying laws - True.

Ethics goes beyond what is legally right, and is more related to what is morally right. An ethical person should do the right thing even if there is no legal code explicitely telling him to do so.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act addressed public company accounting reform. - True

This act added requirements for public accounting firms, and included legal penalties including possible jail time for certain types of misconduct. The Act was enacted following major accounting scandals such as Enron.
