CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Overview
“Even though fraud cases are still widely unknown, the study reveals that fraud is likely to occur at least to some extent - and usually remains
undetected.” (Maria Steinmeier, 2016)
CHAPTER II
As per Smith (1973), opportunity, pressure, and rationalization cause a person to commit fraud. Pressure, as emphasized in Cressey’s
Fraud Triangle, arises in workplace and personal situations. It is about the expectation set by the company for their workers, encompassing their
interests and responses to increase of salary, financial problems, ambitions, and remunerations to employees.
SLIDE 4 BAYLON
Starting from the principal part of the misrepresentation triangle (pressure) appears the conceivable outcomes of unlawful activities, such
as robbery of cash, burglary, and falsifying monetary records. The chance or opportunity directs how the wrongdoing is about to be committed by
the employees.
SLIDE 5 BERNARDO
Fraud schemes of non-cash assets occur when employees steal or use the company’s supplies, equipment, inventory, or property for
personal use. They are commonly unnoticed in a company, specifically when it is just of small measure. However, it is still a fraud. According to
LaVine (2018), asset misappropriation is done through using the company or client’s assets for personal gain. Precisely, it is stealing.
SLIDE 6 AGCAOILI
When poor documentation of expenditures and asset values is preserved, financial auditors may be asked to cook the books. This activity
entails creating numbers that may or may not be accurate representations of real numbers. While a company's top executives may feel compelled
to do so, the practice is not only immoral but also deceptive.

In relation to Ethics
It then makes sense that these fraud schemes are never construed to be legally and morally acceptable. If one of the goals of a workplace is
to become ethical, well, it can no longer be when there is untruth and dishonesty existing. One’s attitude and values can affect the way to afford
life's needs and wants. For instance, dilemmas are present to make people decide between two choices.
