Answer 1 :
How much of a charity's income REALLY goes straight to the beneficiaries? The difficulties, for charities, of finding ethical suppliers of services - say, accountants for example!
Answer 2 :
What went wrong in audit objective and procedures at Enron? What has been done to try to prevent a reoccurence in future situations like Enron's? Are the measures adopted likely to achieve their purpose? What else should be done?
Answer 3 :
The aftermath of Enron - changes in audit practise with specific reference to the excessive controls now required by Auditors as they attempt to shift their liability to the Directors. A sub section on the additional costs of a non US company trading in America. PS I would appreciate a copy if possible.
Answer 4 :
'How can auditors who are being paid by the companies they audit remain objective?'
Answer 5 :
sorry but as a masters student shouldn't you have some sort of interest in your chosen subject to be able to generate your own ideas? The Enron examples are quite well covered already and have resulted in many changes in legislation, corporate governance and financial reporting. There's probably also alot of material that you can copy if you want to. You can take a look in Accountancy magazine to see what are the current issues.
