I chose Option 1:
A. The stakeholders in this situation would be the internal and
external stakeholders for the company IBT Company.
B. The ethical issues involved are the fact that she is forcing
the debits and credits into balance by adding the amount of
difference to the equipment account. She is currently falsifying
financial documents which can have serious repercussions for
her and the company.
C. The alternatives she could have done would have been to
reach out to her higher ups and explained to them what the
issue was and see if they could get an extension of a couple
days or some extra hands to research what the issue is to
figure out how to fix it that way Vanessa can stay away from
doing something unethical or illegal in order to still meet the
deadline. There are many other options she could have chosen
before falsifying financial documents and forcing the debits
and credits to work.
