| Abstract: | Today CPAs are under attack for not doing enough in the war against fraud. For confirmation, look at these news stories: "Last year, a Big Five accounting firm agreed to pay USD 335 million for failing to detect a half-billion dollar revenue overstatement during an auditing" and "A Denver lending company recently sued its auditors for allegedly failing to detect a USD 9 million embezzlement committed by the lender's own president and chief executive officer." |
