Abstract: | While there is no sure-fire way to eliminate fraud - and if there were, the cost probably would be prohibitive - with proper attention by management it can be minimized. This article explores the various ways CPAs in industry and in public practice can sharpen their fraud-detection and -prevention skills. Part of the fraud problem is perception. The fact is few cases of fraud are uncovered by external auditors. The most effective sleuths are the people who handle a business's day-to-day transactions. |
