Answer:
The fraud was discovered Option D: The operations manager found a check made payable to Phillips while searching Phillips' desk for some accounting records.
Explanation:
In the given case study, Ernie Phillips had got a job as a 'controller'. He had started writing checks to himself other than the payroll checks.
This fraud can be discovered when the operations manager found a check on Phillips desk which was payable to himself and it was other than the payroll check. Thus, Option D is the statement as an answer.
Cancelled checks do not have to do anything with the fraud, as per Option A, because cancelled checks are never cleared in the bank. The receiver doesn't usually receive a call before check clearance. So, Option B is also incorrect. No error was there in the check as stated in Option C.

Answer:
The sentence is unethical if there is a clear responsability on the mistakes. If the mistakes were made, and no one can be truly held accountable for that, then, the sentence is not unethical.
Explanation:
For example, if the government is corrupt, and officials actively commit embezzlement, the phrase "mistakes were made" is unethical because it is diverting the personal responsability of the corrupt officials.
But if for example, there is a volcano eruption, and the goverment tries its best to avoid casualties, but because of some involuntary mistakes some people still die, the phrase is not unethical because the mistakes were not voluntary and the consequences of those were not intended.
