Motives for senior managers to commit financial statement fraud are varied.

Following are questions which might help to better understanding the reasoning behind.

  1. (a)  Appraise the reasons senior management would overstate or understate business performance. Elaborate.

  2. (b)  Why would CFOs cook the books even though they know that it is against the law? Elaborate.
