Irish Imports is an importer of silver brass and furniture

Irish Imports is an importer of silver, brass, and furniture items from Ireland. Kathleen O’Shea is
the general manager of Irish Imports. O’Shea employs two other people in the business. Molly
Fitzpatrick serves as the buyer for Irish Imports. In her work, Fitzpatrick travels throughout
Ireland to find interesting new products. When Fitzpatrick finds a new product, she arranges for
Irish Imports to purchase and pay for the item. She helps the Irish artisans prepare their
invoices and then faxes the invoices to O’Shea in the company office.
O’Shea operates out of an office in Boston, Massachusetts. The office is managed by Maura
Riley, who handles the mail, keeps the accounting records, makes bank deposits, and prepares
the monthly bank reconciliation. Virtually all of Irish Imports’ cash receipts arrive by mail—from
sales made to Target, Pier 1 Imports, and Macy’s.
Riley also prepares checks for payment based on invoices that come in from the suppliers who
have been contacted by Fitzpatrick. To maintain control over cash payments, O’Shea examines
the paperwork and signs all checks.
