Abstract: Managerial accounting is an important business function especially in the management of a company's finances. The information, being very sensitive, could easily fall into the wrong hands yielding to financial problems. The importance of ethical conduct within a business is at present a prominent issue inferable from staggering corporate outrages that have occurred in numerous countries causing harm to the economy and society. These corporate scandals address the profound quality of individuals in business, professionals, and company financial officers specifically. It is contended that the financial officers have been the fundamental patrons to the decrease in ethical principles within the corporate culture. Ethics has an integral role in the management accounting where the code of ethics taken on by a company is used to set the expected ethical behavior for accountants.

Keywords: Important Business Function, Managerial Accounting, Company Financial Officers.
