Case Studies in Accounting Fraud 25-26

Overview

This course is designed to present the most significant types of financial statement fraud and embezzlement, illustrated through case situations. We'll distinguish financial reporting fraud from misappropriation of assets and highlight common schemes involving one or both types of fraud. We'll also review high-profile cases and other real-world situations to emphasize the CPA's role and responsibility. Get ready to examine the methods used to perpetrate and disguise schemes, how the fraud was detected and the consequences and explore the CPA's role in preventing and detecting both types of fraud.
