Kasus manipulasi laporan keuangan Enron

Perusahaan Enron harus gulung tikar pada tahun 2001 dengan harga saham hanya 26 sen setelah diketahui adanya penyimpangan dan pelanggaran yang dilakukan Enron yang melibatkan jasa akuntasi publik "A".

Enron telah melakukan manipulasi terhadap laporan keuangan dengan cara menaikkan pendapatannya senilai US$650 juta dan menyembunyikan utangnya sebesar US$1,2 miliar. "A" yang melakukan audit internal dan audit external untuk Enron termasuk untuk kantor-kantor cabang Enron dipersalahkan karena turut membantu proses rekayasa laporan keuangan selama bertahun-tahun. 

Manipulasi laporan keuangan yang dilakukan Enron selama bertahun-tahun ini akhirnya mulai terungkap ketika "S" salah eksekutif Enron melaporkan praktek curang tersebut. 

Setelah terungkapnya kasus ini, pemerintah AS menerbitkan Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) guna melindungi para investor dengan cara meningkatkan akurasi dan reabilitas pengungkapan yang dilakukan secara publik. Selain itu, dibentuk pula PCAOB atau yang disebut Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Kesimpulan:
Kecurangan yang dilakukan oleh "A" telah melanggar prinsip etika profesi, diantaranya yaitu melanggar prinsip integritas dan perilaku profesional. "A" tidak dapat memelihara dan meningkatkan kepercayaan publik dan tidak berperilaku profesional serta konsisten dengan reputasi profesi dalam mengaudit laporan keuangan perusahaan Enron dengan melakukan manipulasi data.

Dear Sir or Madam:

I am pleased to apply for the position of tax accountant advertised by your company. I obtained your contact information through the Monroe Consulting website, and would like to express my interest in working with your company. I graduated in May 2007 from the Gunadarma University with a dual major in Accounting and Finance, and I have taken the CPA exam.

Currently I am working for Southern Manufaturing where I am exposed to many aspects of accounting in the corporate environment. Furthermore, I have seven years of diverse experience in accounting as well as leadership roles where I used my analytical skills to improve cost saving strategies within the company. Also, my experience with Southern Manufacturing has helped me develop my communication skills and taught me how to handle stressful situations while working in a very fast-paced environment.

I am confident that the combination of practical work experience and educational background has prepared me well for making a strong contribution to FMCG. Having received my accounting education from one of the top 20 University, I understand the level of professionalism, communication and work ethic required for long-term success in the field.

Please call me at 081533367103 or e-mail me at BakaHat16@gmail.com to arrange a convenient time when we may meet to further discuss my background in relation to your needs. Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.
