WILL SOMEONE PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH THIS ASSISGNMENTPreview Company, a diversified manufacturer, has five divisions that operate throughout the United States and Mexico. Preview has historically allowed its divisions to operate autonomously; corporate intervention occurred only when planned results were not obtained. Corporate management has high integrity, but the board of directors and audit committee are not very active. Preview has a policy of hiring competent people. The company has a code of conduct, but employee compensation packages depend highly on performance. Preview Company does not have an internal audit department and it relies on your firm to review the controls in each division.
Chip Harris is the general manager of the Fabricator Division. The fabricator Division produces a variety of standardized parts for small appliances. Harris has been the general manager for the last seven years and each year he has been able to improve the profitability of the Division. Much of the improvement in the profitability has come through aggressive cost cutting, including substantial price reductions in control activities over inventory
During last year, a new competitor has entered Fabricator's markets and has offered substantial price reductions in order to grab market share. Harry has responded to the competitor's actions by matching the price cuts in the hope of maintaining market share. Harry is very concerned because he cannot see any other areas where costs can be reduced so that the division's growth and profitability can be maintained. If profitability is not maintained, his salary and bonus will be reduced. Harris decided that one way to make the division more profitable is to manipulate inventory because it represents a large amount of the division's balance sheet. He also knows that controls over inventory are weak. He views this inventory manipulation as a short - run solution to the profit decline due to the competitor's price cutting. Harris is certain that once the competitor stops cutting prices or goes bankrupt, the misstatements in inventory can be corrected with little impact on the bottom line.REQIURED:A. A. Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of preview Company's control environment
