Thomas Denton, Jr. was appointed the manager of Westbrook Properties, a recently formed company that manages residential rental properties. Maria Garcia is the accountant. She prepared a chart of accounts based on an analysis of the expenditures of the company. One of the largest expense categories is Travel and Entertainment. Mr. Denton believes that it is important to maintain a presence in the social life of the city. In this, he sharply differs from his father, Thomas Denton, Sr. The elder Mr. Denton has set up Westbrook Properties in order to test his son's management skills before allowing him to manage a more lucrative commercial property business. Mr. Denton, Sr. provided the capital for Westbrook, and maintains close contact with the company. He allowed his son, however, to hire his own employees.

Mr. Denton has asked Ms. Garcia to name the Travel and Entertainment account Property Development. He hopes to deflect his father's attention away from the amount he has spent on travel and entertainment until he has proven that his methods work. When Ms. Garcia resisted, he reminded her that he, not his father, hired her. He also reminded her that she had been enthusiastic about his business plans when she was hired.

Required:

Should Ms. Garcia agree to the change in the Travel and Entertainment account to Property Development? Explain
