Assignment 2: Ethical Issue: Reclassification of Receivables

Respond to the following ethical issue concerning the reclassification of receivables in your initial post: Moss Exports is having a bad year. Net income is only $60,000. Also, two important overseas customers are falling behind in their payments to Moss, and Moss\’s accounts receivable are ballooning.The company desperately needs a loan. The Moss Exports board of directors is considering ways to put the best face on the company\’s financial statements. Moss\’s bank closely examines cash flow from operations. Daniel Peavey, Moss\’s controller, suggests reclassifying as long-term the receivables from the slow-paying clients. He explains to the board that removing the $80,000 rise in accounts receivable from current assets will increase net cash provided by operations. This approach may help Moss get the loan.Using only the amounts given, compute net cash provided by operations, both without and with the reclassification of the receivables. Which reporting makes Moss look better?Under what condition would the reclassification of the receivables be ethical? Unethical? Support your response.

Describe the difference in open-ended and close-ended questions as it relates to the development of the actual questions and data analysis how open-ended and close-ended questions can be used in a needs assessment appropriate to your topic.                    A close-ended question can be answered with yes or no, a simple word or phrase.  They can be useful in a survey or in a situation where a person is guarded and does not want to share much, or communication is limited (Changing Minds, 2016). Open-ended questions are those questions that can\’t be answered with a simple yes or no response, or simple phrase to answer. According Changing Minds (2016) there are four types of open-ended questions: information questions, key questions, business/process/practice questions, and add-on questions.  Open-ended questions are appropriate in situations when you want to gather more information about a person/organization/community, their wants, needs, and problems (Changing Minds, 2016). During a needs assessment getting the maximum amount of information is critical to accurate data and information.  The data and information from the open-ended questions will generate the direction of the improvement process that may follow a needs assessment.   Open-ended questions are ideal; however, close-ended may be appropriate in surveys of large numbers of participants to gather some data for the needs assessment. Changing Minds (2016) Retrieved from
