Case 11-54 Integrative Case on Chapters 10 and 11; Drawing Conclusion from Missing Data (LO 11-1, 11-3,
11-5)
Your next-door neighbor recently began a new job as assistant controller for Conundrum Corporation. As her first assignment, she
prepared a performance report for January. She was scheduled to present the report to management the next morning, so she
brought it home to review. As the two of you chatted in the backyard, she decided to show you the report she had prepared.
