Assume that you are a cashier and your manager requires that you, as cashier, immediately enter each sale when it occurs. Recently, lunch hour traffic has increased and the assistant manager asks you to avoid delays by taking customers’ cash and making change without entering sales. The assistant manager says she will add up cash and enter sales after lunch. She says that, in this way, the customers will be happy and the register record will always match the cash amount when the manager arrives at three o’clock. The advantage of the process proposed by the assistant manager includes improved customer service, fewer delays, and less work for you. The disadvantage is that the assistant manager could steal cash by simply recording less sales than the cash received and pocketing the excess cash. You decide to reject her suggestion without the manger's approval and to confront her on the ethics of her suggestion. Required:   Propose and evaluate two other courses of action you might consider and explain why

The clerk sends one copy to the purchasing department to close out the open PO, files one copy…

immy Pace has recently been hired as the manager of Jittery Jon’s Coffee Shop. Jittery Jon’s Coffee Shop is a national chain of franchised coffee shops. During his first month as store manager, Jimmy encountered the following internal control situations:a.Jittery Jon’s Coffee Shop has one cash register. Prior to Jimmy’s joining the coffee shop, each employee working on a shift would take a customer order, accept payment, and then prepare the order. Jimmy made one employee on each shift responsible for taking orders and accepting the customer’s payment.

Jimmy expects each cashier to balance the drawer to the penny every time—no exceptions.c.Jimmy caught an employee putting a case of 1,000 single-serving tea bags in her car.…

The following procedures were recently implemented by SUP Yoga Co.: Each cashier is assigned a separate cash register drawer to which no other cashier has access. All sales are rung up on the cash register, and a receipt is given to the customer. All sales are recorded on a record locked inside the cash register. At the end of a shift, each cashier counts the cash in his or her cash register, unlocks the cash register record, and compares the amount of cash with the amount on the record to determine cash shortages and overages. Checks received through the mail are given daily to the accounts receivable clerk for recording collections on account and for depositing in the bank.
