Examine the key inferences of corporate ethics related to internal controls and accounting principles which lead to the litigation or fine for the accounting firm.

Evaluate the primary ethical standards of the accounting organization's leadership and values which contributed to approval of the accounting issues and thus created the litigation or fines in question.
