Understanding what constitutes fraud and understanding the framework are a part of developing an internal control program. The fraud triangle is a framework that is used to understand and explain what the motivation could be when a person decides to commit fraud. Thinking about the fraud cases that you are aware of, how would the fraud triangle explain fraudulent behavior?
A good fraud prevention program should address employees’ motivation to steal from the company. The best method for doing this is toa. Establish employee assistance programs.b. Require a fidelity bond on all employees.c. Require reconciliations of all accounts to be reviewed by a supervisor.d. Ensure that all accounts with high inherent risk of fraud are audited.
The impact of weak internal controls can affect an employee’s fraud behavior. The role of information technology (IT) controls facilitate and help detect fraud. Design a method from the accounting information system (AIS) readings to help eliminate such employee fraud activity. Chapter 3 in your textbook discusses the need for a code of ethics and internal controls.
