Dena Brenner, the ambitious payroll manager and attractive woman, has been working for the Sure Growth Company for three years. After three years, the company obtained larger establishments and decided to hire Dena as the Corporate Payroll Manager. She was well spoken and was well liked by the upper management. The upper management decided to move her to the Human Resource department where she worked with Klaus Dieter. Klaus Dieter worked with the company as a Treasurer for twelve years and ensured that each individual in the company focused on details and cash flow.

Mr. Klaus performed well in hiring an outside private investigation team after noticing fluctuations in the payroll cycle from 4 million to 4.5 million and 700,000 wire transfer. Hiring is better than an internal investigation because it could cause problems in the lack of necessary tools, training, and experience. Thus, the experienced investigation team brought forth clear evidence that Dena was conducting money laundering and forgery. Dena Brenner committed fraud that could have been prevented if the company had stronger controls.

In addition, we settled on this strategy because we ultimately believe that management and the union share at the very least, one fundamental common interest, which is the firm’s financial stability. That being said, even with our plans to use integrative bargaining, we still plan to negotiate assertively to achieve
The underlying issues in both cases are racial discrimination. For Cheryl Boulden in the affirmative action case the issue is being “an African American woman among the good ol’ boys in Indiana.” She was recruited because of race and her permanent handicap was seen as an asset for a diversity program lacking any. Yet these qualities made her a target of racism. Susan Finn’s ethnic discrimination presents a dilemma of how to deal with a contract physician’s abusive behavior “toward Hispanics and female staff as well as patients” (Reeves, 2006, p. 79). While the issues of racial and gender discrimination is not unusual, the failure of these agencies to address multiple complaints is.
Appendix A.2 also lists several factors that could provide opportunities for management/employees to commit fraud. One factor that could lead to fraud is if, “There is ineffective monitoring of management as a result of: domination of management by a single person or small group without compensating controls.” The auditors should have taken notice of the lack of controls and segregation of duties with respect to Phar-Mor’s
