Scenario:

 Superior Wholesale Corporation planned to purchase Regal Furniture, Inc., and wished to deter-mine Regal’s net worth. Superior hired Lynette Shuebke, of the accounting firm Shuebke Delgado, to review an audit that had been prepared by Norman Chase, the accountant for Regal. Shuebke advised Superior that Chase had performed a high-quality audit and that Regal’s inventory on the audit dates was stated accurately on the general ledger. As a result of these representations, Superior went forward with its purchase of Regal.
After the purchase, Superior discovered that the audit by Chase had been materially inaccurate and misleading, primarily because the inventory had been grossly overstated on the balance sheet. Later, a former Regal employee who had begun working for Superior exposed an e-mail exchange between Chase and former Regal chief executive officer Buddy Gantry. The exchange revealed that Chase had cooperated in overstating the inventory and understating Regal’s tax liability. Using the information presented in the chapter, answer the following questions. 

Debate Phrase:

 Only the largest publicly held companies should be subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. 

Please debate this Peer’s debate:

 Sarbanes-Oxley Act is more directed and has a higher impact on private companies than publicly held ones. The failure to adhere to the requirements acts leads to severe penalties. The acts advocate the private’s companies accept special provisions towards corporate governance and formulate best practices. The response resulted from accounting and the scandal that hits corporate governance such as Tyco, Worldcom, and Enron.
