ABSTRACT:
This research examines the ethical considerations in financial reporting and disclosure in Lagos State, Nigeria. The objectives are to: (1) identify common ethical issues in financial reporting, (2) assess the impact of ethical lapses on financial statement integrity, and (3) evaluate strategies to promote ethical reporting practices. A survey design was adopted to collect data from accountants and corporate managers. The sample size, determined using Taro Yamane's formula, ensures representativeness. KPMG Nigeria was selected as the case study due to its emphasis on ethical practices in financial reporting. The reliability coefficient score of the survey was 0.87. Findings reveal that ethical considerations are critical for maintaining the integrity of financial statements and building stakeholder trust. It is recommended that companies in Lagos State implement stringent ethical guidelines and provide regular training to promote ethical financial reporting practices.
