Answer:

Causal ambiguity

Explanation:

Causal Ambiguity is a situation is which it is impossible to replicate the consequences or effects of an event or thing or phenomena.

This is mostly used in the development of share prices among other things.

In the case of the question, the inability to relate the relationship between culpability and the firm's competitve advantage is why its ideas can not be imitated by any other firm.

Cheers.

Identify the internal control weakness in the following situations. State how the person can hurt the company.
Degger [83]

Answer:

Identification of the Internal Control Weaknesses:

A.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of access control.  Jerry Miller as a security guard is not expected to have a master key to the cash box.  With this he can pilfer the cash.  If he prepares the report that shows the number of cars that parked on the lot, he is not supposed to also prepare the day's cash receipts.  Otherwise, he can state any number of cars as parked that he likes, and which corresponds to the cash he might leave in the Cash box since he also has a master key.

B.  There is no segregation of duties and there is lack of supervision,  proper reconciliations, and assets audit.  Sharon Fisher handles purchase transactions from the beginning to the close all alone with a third party.  This exposes the company to procurement frauds and collusion with suppliers.  She can purchase assets for the company at prices that would enrich her personally.

C. Forming an audit opinion on the basis of ratio analysis of last year's comparative financial statements exposes the company to audit risks.  While ratio analysis is part of the basis for forming audit opinions, it is surely not the first audit procedure to obtain audit evidence to support his audit opinion on the financial statements.  An auditor is expected to obtain sufficient audit evidence and perform audit substantive tests of financial statement assertions.  He or she is also expected to review the internal control system to ensure that it is operating effectively after establishing its existence and reviewing changes in internal controls.

Explanation:

Internal Controls are controls established by management in order to help it achieve business goals.  There are many internal controls, including Separation of Duties, Access Controls , Authorization and Approvals, Asset Audits, Reconciliations, and Data Backups.  The purposes of internal controls are to establish the reliability of financial reporting, ensure timely feedback on the achievement of operational or strategic goals, and achieve compliance with financial management laws, and accounting regulations.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An organizational suitability statement for employees points out the reasons why the organization think their experience and skills are suitable for the position they are applying for in the organisation.

A suitability statement, known as a personal statement, shows a summary of the key skills and experience you possess for a given job

Thus Orbiton Computer's failure can be attributed to the lack of organizational suitability meaning the employees are not suitable and dont have the required skills for this job. They need to find the adequate skills for the job.
