Jim Sullivan is the owner and manager of Auto Spa. Auto Spa provides various car wash and car detailing services. Auto Spa also sells snacks and gift items in its waiting area.

Auto Spa has one cash register, where all payments from customers are received. There is a $400 change fund in the cash register at the beginning of each day. There are two cash register clerks, George and Alice, who work two different shifts during the day. Jim is quite busy as an owner and operator of the car wash and trusts George and Alice completely. Jim does not see the need to count out the cash register drawers with George or Alice after their shifts are ended. Additionally, Jim prints out a cash register tape at the end of the day but does not compare it to the deposit.

During the first week of August, Jim noticed an increase in business. However, the cash deposits to the bank were less than Jim thought they should be. He has contacted you for advice.
