Answer: d. Entire initial investment will not be recovered.
Explanation:
The Payback period by definition is the amount of time it will take a Project to recover the initial investment into it. For example, if a project had an investment of $20 million and made $5 million every year, the Payback period would be 4 years.
Now, if the amount of time it will take to recover an investment is longer than the expected amount of time the project will run (expected useful life) then logically speaking that would mean that the Investment would not be entirely recovered because the project will be done before it can pay off the investment hence Option D is correct.
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.
