The fraud at healthsouth at the structural level of the company was more intense because checks and balances were eliminated and organizational culture was compromised

    The HealthSouth fraud took place in an intriguing time of economic expansion and lax laws, which made accounting fraud considerably simpler. Investors and lenders were more concerned with revenue in the 1990s than they were with profitability. Growth was important when a company was asking for funding. CEOs were under pressure, including Scrushy, to maintain company growth and consistently above analyst predictions. Along with this increased demand for growth, there emerged an odd legal climate.

     The HealthSouth CFOs (described as: filling "holes" in the balance sheet with "dirt") changed their earnings figures.  The fraud went unnoticed until 2003, when Weston Smith, a former HealthSouth CFO, told federal authorities about it. It involved inappropriately capitalizing spending, overestimating insurance reimbursements, overvaluing fixed assets, and employing flawed reserve accounting.

Llana [10]

Answer:

Receiving $2,000 every year for 6 years is worth more today.

Explanation:

$2,000 received per year is annuity as same amount is received every year.

Given:

Amount received every year = $2,000

Time period = 6 years

Rate = 5%

Check PVIFA (Present value of annuity factor) table for 5% and 6 years, we get 5.0757

Present value of annuity = 2,000 × 5.0757

                                       = $10,151.4

Receiving $2,000 every year for 6 years is worth more today than receiving $10,000 today as present value of annuity is worth $10,151.4 today which is more than $10,000.

So, $2,000 every year is worth more today.
