Question

Charleston Company was nearing year-end and the CEO wanted to report a high level of inventory on the balance sheet. An order of raw materials was scheduled for delivery on January 2 of the next year, but the CEO asked the accounting manager to record the shipment as being received on the last day of December. The shipment was actually received on January 2nd, and although the dollar impact of the transaction was not affected in any way, the misrepresentation of facts in the situation would make the behavior unethical.
