Donna Deduction is a staff accountant for Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe, LLP. She and other staff raid the office supply cabinet for office supplies to take home to use. In addition to the standard paper, pens, paper clips, and so forth, the staff takes home ink jet cartridges and other high-cost supplies. During the year, Donna takes home supplies worth more than $500. In your opinion, is this ethical behavior? If Donna does a significant amount of work for the firm at home, would your opinion change?
