You will select one of the cases that have been discussed thus far in the course (Chapters 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6) as the focus of your recommendations list. You may use the information that has already been analyzed about the case studies from previous group discussions to help prepare your recommendations.

Prompt: Select one of the cases that have been discussed thus far in the course. Make logical and realistic recommendations to the company management to strengthen their internal control systems.
