NOTE: McKesson & Robbins had another fraud in 1999 that is unrelated to the 1939 fraud and does not need to be covered in this paper.
Both of these cases established auditing procedures that are still required today. Both of these cases resulted in SEC investigations, legislation, and regulations that were meant to prevent future frauds. Both of these cases have been repeated in similar frauds over the decades since they occurred. Your assignment. Remember do not use a Q&A format. Write a paper that includes in a well written paper, answers to the following questions (not necessarily in this order) for each case.
