He was put in charge of the Fresh Eats audit because of his experience with other grocery clients. Fresh Eats has a small, but growing chain of natural food stores. This is the first year Fresh Eats has been audited. Because of its growth, Mellow needs additional capital. Mellow intends to take its audited financial statements to a bank to secure a loan. Jim has been assigned two inexperienced staff assistants for the audit. Because this is his first audit as a senior, he intends to bring the job in on budget.
