The _______________ cost method of pricing would carry an asset's value on the financial statements as what it would currently cost, considering inflation.
Correct Option: A
โ **Price-level adjusted historical cost **
Reasoning: This method adjusts an asset's original historical cost to account for changes in the general price level, specifically inflation. By updating the acquisition cost to reflect current purchasing power, it presents the asset's value on financial statements as what it would currently cost, considering the impact of inflation since its purchase.
______________ is required not only for theft, but for procedures to detect errors, avoid waste and insure a proper amount of inventory is maintained.
Correct Option: A
โ **Inventory control **
Reasoning: Inventory control refers to the systematic process of managing goods, encompassing procedures to prevent theft, minimize waste, detect errors, and ensure optimal stock levels. These functions directly align with all aspects described in the statement. โ Why the other choices are incorrect:
- No other choices were provided in the prompt for evaluation.
_________ is defined as a person who works for the victim organization and who is primary culprit
Correct Option: A
โ **Principal perpetrator **
Reasoning: A "principal perpetrator" accurately describes the primary individual responsible for committing a fraudulent act, especially when they are an employee of the victim organization and the main culprit. โ Why the other choices are incorrect:
- No other choices were provided in the prompt.
One of the simplest ways to justify unacceptable conduct and avoid guilt feelings is to invent a good reason for ________.
Correct Option: A
โ
Reasoning: This statement describes "rationalization," a key component of the fraud triangle. Perpetrators invent justifications for their unacceptable conduct, such as embezzling, to mitigate guilt and maintain a positive self-image, making the act seem excusable. โ Why the other choices are incorrect:
- No other choices were provided in the question.
Depreciation is especially applicable when companies try to overvalue their assets and net worth; the lower their depreciation expense, the higher the company's profits.
Correct Option: A
โ
Reasoning: Lower depreciation expense directly increases reported net income. Companies manipulate depreciation parameters (e.g., useful life, salvage value) to reduce this expense. This boosts reported profits and keeps asset net book values higher, thereby overstating assets and overall net worth. โ Why the other choices are incorrect:
- Option B is incorrect: The statement accurately describes how manipulating depreciation, specifically lowering the expense, impacts reported profits and contributes to overstating asset values and net worth.
