Answer: Bait and switch
Explanation:
The type of fraud here is referred to as the bait and switch fraud. This fraud occurs when customers are told about the low prices and quality of a product but aren't available when customers want to purchase such products and they're then given products that are costlier or products that are of lesser quality.

The journal entry is shown below
Cash $46,620
To Notes Receivable $44,400
To Interest receivable ($44,400 × 15% × 120 days ÷ 360 days)

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.
The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:
Entry:
COGS Dr $9.4m
Inventory Cr $9.4m
