this is a British-based website so you may not have much luck getting an answer about American accounting practices. But if the statement hasn't yet been prepared, it's hard to see what she might be accused of; surely her supervisor has been briefed and is in a position to correct anything the company might deem to be wrong before matters are taken any further?
To assist you with the answer, as someone working for a FTSE100 company with a mandatory ethics code applicable to all employees, imagine I am Chiara.
The disagreement on accounting principles between me and my supervisor is that I believe 50% of the company’s profits are to be paid directly into my personal bank account.
Under option 1; on resignation that it the end of the matter, and I can keep the 50% of the company profits.
Under option 2; on resignation they might have a right to sue me for the money I stole and report that theft to the police.
Under option 3; on resignation, after reporting the matter to AICPA (whoever they are), that is the end of the matter, and I can keep the 50% of the company profits.
Option 4; none of the above.
