Mike, Let's put it this way: You head a team of auditors at your firm. You make big bucks off a major account. A junior auditor comes to you and says "I don't really like the way they are accounting for this sale of an asset." What is your answer? Or, as Dennis Hopper said in Speed, "What will you do? What will you do?"

1. Tell the big client you won't sign off. You have your integrity. You lose the big client and your job, as does everyone on your team, but you have integrity.

2. You take it to your boss to make the decision and like a good Nazi, you just carry out orders. Of course, you are being paid extra for keeping those types of decisions away from management, so you can expect a drop in lifestyle.

3. You decide it's no big deal and tell junior to sign off.

Most will opt for #3. A few will go for #2. #1 is a non-choice.
