The following is an excerpt from a conversation between two salesclerks, Jean Moen and Sara Cheney. Jean and Sara are employed by Turpin Meadows Electronics, a locally owned and operated electronics retail store.

Jean: Did you hear the news?
Sara: What news?
Jean: Neal and Linda were both arrested this morning.
Sara: What? Arrested? You're putting me on!
Jean: No, really! The police arrested them first thing this morning. Put them in handcuffs, read them their rights—the whole works. It was unreal!
Sara: What did they do?
Jean: Well, apparently they were filling out merchandise refund forms for fictitious customers and then taking the cash.
Sara: I guess I never thought of that. How did they catch them?
Jean: The store manager noticed that returns were twice that of last year and seemed to be increasing.

When he confronted Neal, he became flustered and admitted to taking the cash, apparently more than $9,000 in just three months. They're going over the transactions of the last six months to try to determine how much Linda stole. She apparently started stealing first.

Suggest appropriate control procedures that would have prevented or detected the theft of cash.

Explanation:

Internal management applies to corporate organisations procedures and strategies and other steps that protect the assets, enable staff that adhere to schedules, improve company efficiency and ensure that the reports are correct and consistent. Internal management is a mechanism that assures the continuity of the achievement of organizational, financial statements and legal and regulatory goals of a organization.

To order to prevent / detect stealing of cash from fake returns, the following are monitoring procedures:

• No cash refund may be identified and replaced with any nice.

• Refunds are traded for other products and these schemes for consumers are not very common.

• There's a risk to sacrifice consumer purchases and buy for a more generous return policy than the other shops.
