Description
Summary:Abstract: The Urgency of Rationalization for Unethical Behaviour and Accounting Fraud. This study tried to determine the impact of rationalization on unethical behaviour and accounting fraud. This study used a regression analysis method with a number of civil servants as a sample.

This could be prevented by avoiding misuse of power or resources. Apart from that, every individual should be avoided as much as possible from feeling disappointed and conspirators of accounting fraud.
