Championship Boxing, Inc.
Championship Boxing, Inc. is a small manufacturer of cardboard boxes of all sizes. You have reported for your first day of work, and the company is in an uproar. Yearly financial statements are being prepared, but a computer malfunction of the company’s new BOX-9000 computer has inadvertently erased parts of the company’s balance sheet, along with almost all related data except the company’s statement of cash flows.
