Chapter 5, Problem 5.1FC
Rae Philippe was a warehouse manager for Atkins Oilfield Supply, a business that operated across eight Western states. She was an old pro and had known most of the other warehouse managers for many years. Around December each year, auditors would come to do a physical count of the inventory at each warehouse. Recently, Rae’s brother started his own drilling company and persuaded Rae to “loan” him 80 joints of 5-inch drill pipe to use for his first well. He promised to have it back to Rae by December, but the well encountered problems and the pipe was still in the ground. Rae knew the auditors were on the way, so she called her friend Andy, who ran another Atkins warehouse. “Send me over 80 joints of 5-inch pipe tomorrow, and I’ll get them back to you ASAP,” said Rae. When the auditors came, all the pipe on the books was accounted for, and they filed a “no-exception” report.
Requirements
- 1. Is there anything the company or the auditors could do in the future to detect this kind of fraudulent practice?
- 2. How would this kind of action affect the financial performance of the company?

The Reeves twins are in the yard maintenance business. They want to start doing snow removal during the winter season because they practically don't have any yards to maintain. The twins are trying to determine how much equipment they need to purchase. The twins plan to do most of the work themselves and then hire some part-time workers on an individual job basis to help out.
The twins gathered some data on past weather. Based on the information, they predict that there will be six big snowstorms in the coming winter. Most of their clients want the snow removed no more than two days after the snow stops falling. If the twins work for 10 hours a day, they can remove the snow from the driveway of a home in about 1 hour. However, for commercial parking lots and public sidewalks, it will take 4 hours.
The variable cost per job is $12 for home driveways and $47 for commercial parking lots. The twins estimated that they will have no more than 40 homeowners and 25 businesses who would like…

For over fifteen years he had commuted on I95, and worried that too much of his family time was spent in traffic jams. Two years ago he acted on one of his dreams and relocated to New Hampshire to open a restaurant and novelty shop. The shop had been in its current location for over twelve years and had achieved a reputation for service and a wide range of tourist novelties. Ted ran the operations of the store, and his wife handled all the office and administrative functions. In the past year he had withdrawn $35,000 from the business for living expenses. During next year’s slow season he hoped that he and his wife would be able to take at least four weeks as a vacation.
