Case 6

Janet Moody is one of XZY Company's most trusted employees. She never complains about her work and rarely misses work due to illness or vacation. The company has been successful over the years, but is not having cash flow problems. Because of the recent downturn in the company, you take a closer look at all the company's financial records. When you ask Janet about the recent cash flow problems, she responds, "I don't know what is going on. I only do the reporting. Ask those who manage the company." This behavior differs from Janet's normal pleasant deportment. As you continue your investigation, you discover that the reported financial results do not match what the company is doing, but you can't determine why. You decide to investigate Janet further.
