Question

Looking for Evidence of Fraud. Wen-Li is an internal auditor for Main Electrical
Supply in Springfield, Illinois. During her audit, she came across the invoice shown in
Exhibit D.60.1. The invoice is in almost pristine condition with few marks and no creases.
The invoice was properly filed in a vendor folder marked Best Office Supply, which is on the
approved vendor list, but the vendor review sheet, which is required to place a vendor on the
approved vendor list, is missing from the file.
Three other invoices were in the file:

June 14, 2016 Invoice 0076 $238.99
July 17, 2016 Invoice 0081 324.55
August 16, 2016 Invoice 0085 386.82

Required:
a. Is this a legitimate invoice? What information might lead you to suspect that this invoice
may indicate a fraud?
b. What type(s) of fraud might this indicate?
