Module 1 Discussion
Review the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to
address the accounting scandals in the late 1990s and early 2000s (Enron,
WorldCom, etc.). Identify the provisions that you believe made the most
significant impact. What other provisions could have been included in the Act
to strengthen the responsible stewardship and integrity of the accounting
profession? Conversely, what existing provisions in the Act do you believe (if
any) are unnecessary or over-regulate the profession?
