Y2 Please help with Development of an Anti-Fraud Program The potential for fraud occurs in all organizations, regardless of the industry in which it operates, financial structure, or size. Every organization is vulnerable to fraud. The risk of fraud should be reduced as much as possible to improve the longevity of the organization. Hence, preventing, deterring, and detecting fraud are crucial to the success of organizations. Deterring and preventing fraud can be more economical than detecting, investigating, and recovering from fraud after the fact. These anti-fraud measures must start at the top and must be communicated throughout the organization. They must go beyond internal controls yet consider the cost-benefit. Please explain ho to develop an anti-fraud program, or model, that can be implemented in any organization. In other words, don't apply the model to a specific organization. The model, if applied correctly, must be efficient in preventing, detecting and deterring fraud.…

10.1a With regards to the Springer's Lumber & Supply case presented in chapter 10, what deficiencies existed in the internal control environment at Springer's? 10.3 One function of the AIS is to provide adequate controls to ensure the safety of organizational assets, including data.  However, many people view control procedures as “red tape” that unnecessarily slow down the process and make them less efficient.  They also believe that, instead of producing tangible benefits, business controls create resentment and loss of company morale.  Discuss this position. Explain what is meant by objective setting and describe the four types of objectives used in ERM. How would you calculate the net benefit (value) of implementing risk responses/controls? How would you determine if the risk responses/controls selected were adequate or if additional risk responses/controls were needed?
