Accounting ethical standards dictate “…serving the public interest and honoring the public trust…”.
What does this mean to you? As an accountant, what do you do to honor the public trust and serve the public interest other than simply “doing your job”?
In my opinion, it relates not only to substance, but form as well. Curious what other’s opinions are regarding this and if they can elaborate on what type of background/experience/training they have with this as well.
AICPA Code of Professional Conduct
Section ET 53 – Article II – The Public Interest
Members should accept the obligation to act in a way that will serve the public interest, honor the public trust and demonstrate commitment to professionalism.
