Research and Discussion
Your report can focus entirely on the topic: Occupational fraud and making ethical decisions without discussing any specific case. Otherwise, you can link the topic to a case (do not write about Madoff Ponzi Scheme) and ensure your report contains the following information if applicable: Describe the case, what factors led to the fraud, what specific fraud occurred, what was the effect on investors and creditors, what was the effect on company employees, what was the effect on the individuals that perpetrated the fraud, what was the effect on the investment and regulatory markets, how was the audit firm affected by the fraud, what could have been done to prevent the fraud, how did this case affect your views and opinions.
