Brooks, a university graduate with an accounting degree and the former CEO of DHBIndustries, Inc., was charged in October 2007 with accounting and securities fraud for failing toreport the company’s inventory at the lower of cost or market. From 2001 to 2005, DHB purchasedlarge quantities of a material called Zylon and used it in making bulletproof vests that were sold tothe U.S. military and local law enforcement agencies. During this same period, DHB learned thatZylon deteriorated rapidly when exposed to light, heat, and body perspiration. DHB knew that oneof its competitors, Second Chance Body Armor, had stopped using Zylon in its vests and, eventually, discontinued its business because customer demand for its Zylon-based vests had evaporated.DHB did not write down its own inventory of Zylon and Zylon-based vests because it had a largecontract to supply the U.S. military with bulletproof vests.

The company is under pressure from investors to increase earnings, and the president of the company expects the accounting department to "make this happen." Margie's boss, who has been a mentor to her, is concerned that if earnings do not increase, he will be terminated. Shortly after the end of the fiscal year, the company performs a physical count of the inventory. When Margie compares the physical count to the balance in the inventory account, she finds a significant amount of inventory shrinkage. The amount is so large that it will result in a significant drop in earnings this period. Margie's boss asks her not to make an adjusting entry for shrinkage this period. He assures her that he will get "caught up" on shrinkage in the next period, after the pressure is off to reach this period's earning goal.

- Nancy Thomas is the chief accountant at Company C, a manufacturer of medical equipment. The company is under pressure from creditors to increase its earnings. Shortly after the end of the fiscal year, the company performed a physical count of the inventory. A significant amount of inventory shrinkage was discovered. The amount is so large that it will result in a significant drop in earnings this period. The decrease in earnings will hurt the company's chance at getting a much needed loan at a low interest rate. Nancy is thinking of not reporting the shrinkage until next period, after the company gets its loan. What should Nancy do in this situation? Why?An anonymous source advised Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) that Jim Mayers, owner of Mayers Grocery Store, has been filing fraudulent tax returns for the past several years.

The client engaged Maxim's audit firm in November 2017, in preparation for the 2018 audit. From 30 January 2018 onwards, SS has consistently paid its suppliers late, well in excess of the suppliers' agreed credit terms. This has resulted in some suppliers demanding cash on delivery from SS. Maxim is also aware from his review of correspondence between SS and its bank that the company has been experiencing cash flow problems since 2016. Required: Identify any significant events or conditions that individually or collectively may cast significant doubt on SS's ability to continue as a going concernA former chairman, CFO, and controller of Donnkenny, Inc., an apparel company that makes sportswear for Pierre Cardin and Victoria Jones, pleaded guilty to financial statement fraud.

The combined effect of these actions caused $25 million out of $40 million in quarterly sales to be phony.a. Why might control procedures listed in this chapter be insufficient in stopping this type of fraud?b. How could this type of fraud be stopped?
