Abstract
The president of Noranda Minerals is evaluating the Environmental Management System in his resource-based company. The company undertakes an environmental audit, and the president must identify various stakeholders and prioritize their needs. He must decide if an environmental annual report should be made public. This case also underlines the increasing importance that qualitative considerations have in the financial decision-making process. Noranda Mines is a useful tool to discuss possible revisions to financial accounting and auditing standards in addressing environmental questions. (A sequel to this case is available, titled Noranda Minerals (B), case 9A91B009.)
