Ted Mohr had worked as a mid-level manager for a large retail chain with a regional headquarters in Fairfield County, Connecticut. For over fifteen years he had commuted on I95, and worried that too much of his family time was spent in traffic jams. Two years ago he acted on one of his dreams and relocated to New Hampshire to open a restaurant and novelty shop. The shop had been in its current location for over twelve years and had achieved a reputation for service and a wide range of tourist novelties. Ted ran the operations of the store, and his wife handled all the office and administrative functions. In the past year he had withdrawn $35,000 from the business for living expenses. During next year’s slow season he hoped that he and his wife would be able to take at least four weeks as a vacation.

Originally from Germany, Jones, now age 32, earned his doctorate and taught at the University of Munich before coming to the United States, where he started his career in computers. In 1996, Jones started working with the company as a director of operations for U.S.-Speech Engineering Service and Retrieval Technology—working on a new, closely guarded search engine tied to the company’s .net concept. The company allows employees to order an unlimited amount of software and hardware, at no cost, for business purposes. Between December 2001 and November 2002, Jones ordered or used his assistant and other employees (including a high school intern) to order nearly 1,700 pieces of software which had very low cost but were worth a lot on the street. He then resold them for reduced prices—reaping millions.…arrow_forwardHenri is the owner of the “Chez Henri” Restaurant. It is not a large restaurant (78 seats). For this reason, it does not have many people on the payroll. Henri has been handling the general manager’s responsibilities and has a good friend working half a day, five days a week, to take care of such matters as bank deposits, preparing accounts payable and payroll checks, and all other routine office and bookkeeping work. Henri is not concerned about the honesty of the person, but he has learned from courses he has taken that any company, however small, needs to have some internal controls. REQUIRED Write a short report to Henri pointing out three specific areas where you believe controls might need to be implemented. For each of the three areas, advise Henri what might happen if a dishonest bookkeeper was hired and how internal control can be implemented to prevent dishonesty. Henri would like to prepare the coming year restaurant budget himself. Please, help Henri understand the…arrow_forward

Alakishia has been operating in Jakarta for more than 10 years. Aries is one of the employees who is responsible for recording transactions in the purchasing department when ordering raw materials from suppliers. Once, Wilson as the party who made the payments and received the invoices, resigned from the office, so for the moment everything was in Aries' charge. Jenni as COO of PT. Alakitashia really trusts Aries because by seeing the contribution of Aries for a long time, it is also due to the close friendship between them, thus leaving the work entirely and the internal control to Aries itself. This has caused a lack of segregation of duties, so that since it was fully managed by Aries, the number of purchases has increased and it can be seen how the expenses are higher than before, so it is feared that fraud could occur. In addition, Aries has also collaborated with all suppliers and the production department to harmonize the transaction record in the form of the number of units…arrow_forward

Lee purchases its microcomputer with off-the-shelf software and appears very pleased with it. You notice that the computer sits on the bookkeeper’s desk.
