Assess whether a referral to counsel is warranted (0417b2)

Situation

Occupational Fraud work in a multi-entity PE roll-up after a bolt-on now turns on a referral to counsel is warranted because a covenant-compliance near-miss at the bank put quarter-end revenue reversal cluster in play.

Decision

Revenue-integrity director in a multi-entity PE roll-up after a bolt-on must choose Remove access or reverse the item / Temporary compensating control / Approve a documented exception / Hold using quarter-end revenue reversal cluster after a covenant-compliance near-miss at the bank.

Hypotheses to test

• Quarter-end revenue reversal cluster after a covenant-compliance near-miss at the bank is closer to Temporary compensating control; calling Remove access or reverse the item would over-claim this Forensic Accounting extract.
• Trace approval, SoD, and related-party links that quarter-end revenue reversal cluster actually shows. is still a live third reading of quarter-end revenue reversal cluster that revenue-integrity director has not closed.
• Quarter-end revenue reversal cluster after a covenant-compliance near-miss at the bank does not yet name the fact a referral to counsel is warranted turns on, so revenue-integrity director should leave Forensic Accounting unresolved.

Analysis required

• Test cutoff, reversals, and system-of-record ties for materiality on a referral to counsel is warranted.
• Quantify the entry if revenue-integrity director has to reverse it.
• For this Forensic Accounting Occupational Fraud file, read quarter-end revenue reversal cluster against a covenant-compliance near-miss at the bank and write the one fact that would move a referral to counsel is warranted for revenue-integrity director.
