Chapter 5 ~ Process Cost Accounting—General Procedures 285, MINI-CASE Ethics; Equivalent units of production New York Beverages, Inc., has three plants that make and bottle cola, lemon-lime, and miscellaneous flavored beverages, respectively.

The results, approved by the plant manager and reported by the plant controllers at each location, were as follows: (Note: tabular presentation not necessary in final draft.)

When provided copies of the results as a justification for distributing the bonus to the Queens employees, the plant controllers at Bronx and Brooklyn accused Queens of manipulating the inventory figures. Re- viewing the above schedule, what do you think is the nature of the accusation and how would such action affect the unit cost computation? 2. Is there anything in the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) Code of Professional Ethics that the Queens plant controller should be aware of in this situation? 3. Assume that the Queens plant controller revises the unit cost to more accurately reflect reality. What should she do if the plant manager ists that the unit cost computation remain as is?
