Sally oversees the accounting operations at Hopewell Distributors. Recently, Sally
suspects an accounting manager commits fraud because the accounting manager in the
operations division submitted a report that had incorrect account receivable totals. Sally
checks the actual receivable totals against the forecasted totals and her assessment is
correct. The manager then reports lower total receivables and compares those totals to
the amount the company actually collects. A recent audit report indicates that the
manager wrote checks payable to cash and cashed the checks. What actions should
Sally take about the information she discovered about the accounting manager in the
operations division?
