As the senior internal auditor for Innovative Hockey Gear, LLC, you have determined the appropriate fraud detection policies. Now you are working with your team to draft a fraud prevention and detection plan.

Use the Internet, Strayer databases, or your text to research the key elements of a fraud prevention and detection program and prepare a plan.

Instructions

1. Evaluate the key elements that should be included in the plan, including a justification as to how the element is likely to protect corporate assets and minimize risk based on your research.
2. Create an argument to be presented to the senior leadership in support of a fraud prevention and detection plan, indicating the consequences of failure to implement the plan. Provide support for your argument.

4. Compare the roles of management, internal auditors, external auditors, governing bodies, and the board of directors, and assess how each can contribute to your fraud prevention and detection plan.
5. Evaluate the tools that you would propose to use to make your plan more effective in mitigating or eliminating fraud and how you would justify the risk/reward ratio of each tool recommended.
6. Prepare a fraud prevention and detection plan based on your findings, indicating how you would communicate the plan to employees throughout the organization.
