Q2.8** (Mt. Kinley Consulting) Mt. Kinley is a strategy consulting firm that divides its consultants into three classes: associates, managers, and partners. The firm has been stable in size for the last 20 years, ignoring growth opportunities in the 90s, but also not suffering from a need to downsize in the recession at the beginning of the 21st century. Specifically, there have been—and are expected to be—200 associates, 60 managers, and 20 partners. The work environment at Mt. Kinley is rather competitive. After four years of working as an associate, a consultant goes "either up or out"; that is, becomes a manager or is dismissed from the company. Similarly, after six years, a manager either becomes a partner or is dismissed. The company recruits MBAs as associate consultants; no hires are made at the manager or partner level. A partner stays with the company for another 10 years (a total of 20 years with the company). a. How many new MBA graduates does Mt. Kinley have to hire every year? b. What are the odds that a new hire at Mt. Kinley will become partner (as opposed to being dismissed after 4 years or 10 years)?

Management discovers that a supervisor at one of its restaurant locations removes excess cash and resets sales totals throughout the day on the point-of-sale (pos) system. at closing, the supervisor deposits cash equal to the recorded sales on the pos system and keeps the rest. the supervisor forwards the close-of-day pos reports from the pos system along with a copy of the bank deposit slip to the company’s revenue accounting department. the revenue accounting department records the sales and the cash for the location in the general ledger and verifies the deposit slip to the bank statement. any differences between sales and deposits are recorded in an over/short account and, if necessary, followed up with the location supervisor. the customer food order checks are serially numbered, and it is the supervisor’s responsibility to see that they are accounted for at the end of each day. customerchecks and the transaction journal tapes from the pos system are kept by the supervisor for 1 week at the location and then destroyed. what control allowed the fraud to occur?
