Fraud that may be disclosed Interception of cash receipts before any record is made Payment for materials not received Duplicate payments Overpayments to employees or payments to fictitious employees Payments for personal expenditures of officers or related parties 10-16
17 10-17

Cash deposits and disbursements recorded on the bank statement, but not on the accounting records. Cash receipts and disbursements recorded at different amounts by the bank than in the accounting records
22 Proof of Cash 10-22
23 Check 21 Act Checks may be processed electronically Electronic processing creates a substitute check an electronic image of check Legal equivalent of original check for all purposes Audit implications Need to rely on substitute check for evidence of check Impossible for clients to kite checks (manipulate bank balances to conceal cash shortage) 10-23
24 Kiting Manipulations that utilize temporarily overstated bank balances to conceal cash shortage or meet short-term cash needs Kiting schemes rely upon the existence of a float period in which transactions are not processed in real time; increased electronic processing has made kiting more difficult through reducing (or eliminating the float period). Auditors can detect kiting by preparing a schedule of bank transfers for a few days before and after balance sheet date Misstatements Date of recording per transfer per the books are from different financial statement periods Date the check was recorded by the bank is from financial statement period prior to books 10-24
25 Bank Transfer Schedule 10-25
