- Abstract
- The study's aims were to examine the influence of accounting ethics on company operations at Wattle Pvt Ltd. A descriptive study approach was adopted, and a sample size of 25 people (n=22) was chosen. A questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale was used to collect primary data. The questionnaire had a Cronbach Alpha rating of.894 after being assessed for instrument variability and reliability. The data was analyzed with SPSS and descriptive statistics, and replies were ranked using mean values. According to the findings, the most common ethical accounting practices at Wattle Pvt Ltd are integrity, confidentiality, and professional behavior. Finally, the study discovered a substantial association between ethical accounting (p=0.00) and corporate operations. The researcher advised Wattle Pvt Ltd to create a good accounting system and to guarantee that an accounting code of ethics adheres to International Standards. It came to the conclusion that Wattle Company should embrace honesty, impartiality, fairness, and responsibility as a moral obligation in order to lower the degree of unethical accounting practices.
