Farrar Manufacturing Company allows employees to purchase, at cost, manufacturing materials, such as metal and lumber, for personal use. To purchase materials for personal use, the employee's immediate supervisor. Penny Carron, an assistant cost accountant, charges the employee an amount based on Farrar's net purchase cost.
Peggy Carron is in the process of replacing a deck on her home and has requisitioned lumber for personal use, which has been approved in accordance with company policy. In computing the cost of the lumber, Peggy reviewed all the purchase invoices for the past year. She then used the lowest price to compute the amount due the company for the lumber.
Discuss whether Peggy behaved in an ethical manner
Unethical but would not be uncommon.
An independent determination should have determined the cost due to a conflict of interest.

to students? to a country? to the whole accounting profession?
Simply taking a course only makes the attendees aware of the need for ethical principles. This doesn't guarantee they do anything with their new knowledge.

i am doing a research on the ethics of accounting and how important they are.may you please give me your opinions
Sometimes, management uses accounting to hide problems. They change consignment sales to normal sales, use inter-company transactions to boost sales, under estimate royalty exposure, capitalize expenses which should be expensed or classify personal expenses as company expenses.
This approach not only violate accounting standards but also hides the true problem from scrutiny. It does not solve the root cause of the problem. It allows the problem to grow, often times to a point where the survival of the company is threatened.
That said, the persons that normally have to face the consequences of misleading financial reports are the investors.

Please explain each ethical code.
There is no quick overview, because the AICPA code of ethics covers many different areas. You can find information online at:

Ethics inquiry urged for US Rep. Tom Price Atlanta Journal Constitution
The office referred Price and two other House members to the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct.
The office had been looking at the appearance of impropriety related to campaign solicitations to banks and financial companies on the eve of the financial reform vote.
In a prepared statement, Price called the recommendation baffling.
"How the O.C.E. arrived at their recommendation is truly a mystery," he said. "There being no evidence of any wrongdoing or any inconsistency in my policy position, one can only guess as to the motive behind their decision or even why they chose to initiate a review in the first place."
The ethics office recommended dropping related investigations of five other lawmakers, including two Democrats and three Republicans.
The law creating the ethics office, a non partisan investigative branch of Congress, requires that it notify potential targets of the reasons behind its recommendations.
A spokesman for the office declined to comment.
