Magine your company cheated on their earnings statement. The company's accounting firm doesn't say anything. You go into their office wanting an explanation. The CPA calmly says, "Oh, I lied when we signed off on the report." Your reply, "But you can't lie - it is your DUTY to tell the truth." You want the CPA to follow which ethical theory?

deontological ethics

Explanation:

Deontological ethics is an ethical theory that posits that the morality of an action, as to whether such action is right or wrong, is determined by certain established rules and principles rather than the consequences of such actions. In order words, a certain moral decision or action should be taken in accordance with laid down rules or principles regardless of the consequences of such decision.

In the example given in the question, I want the CPA to follow the deontological ethics, which requires the CPA to adhere to laid down principles regarding how they should discharge their duty, not regarding the outcome of any decision taken in the course of discharging their duty. Therefore, CPA should do the needful that is expected of them.
