The new professional code of ethics of accountant is established in the Brazilian Accounting Norm (NBC PG 01), approved by the Federal Accounting Council (CFC), at September 7, 2019, and its updates and deletions are considered significant. We used the methodology classified as quantitative, descriptive, documental, and through data collection, the data showed that between all accountants analyzed during the research, only 76% of the accountants of Corumbá city were aware of the code update. Regarding the belittlement aspect, that there is not in the new code, about 70% were against the update, because it will be detrimental to the accountants. About the divulgation of prices and gratuity 76% are against because of class devaluation, and that would cause unfair competition and even disunion between accountants. Regarding price fixing, the answers were divided by 50% against and 50% in favor.
