2. In the F C case, inventory manipulation was used to enact the fraud. Discuss the proper internal controls needed over inventory and how these controls will act as a deterrent to fraudulent activities.
3. For a moment, step into the shoes of Catherine Sprauer at F C International. Indicate what you would have done following each of the confrontations she had with the two employees who insisted that F C executives were involved in a fraudulent scheme to misrepresent the company’s financial statements.
4. Discuss how accounting firms should modify their audit procedures to ensure the risk of financial fraud is minimized.
5. Discuss how the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues to fail to detect fraudulent activities in publically traded companies. Suggest a recommendation for improvement.
