Employee theft is the largest "expense" of a business in this country. The key to implementing controls is to determine the right amount. It is important to weigh the cost and benefit of each control. For example, if a company wishes to install security cameras to deter theft however it will cost $20,000 and would be expected to reduce theft less than that then the company may want to consider other options. Knowing that, what controls might be in place to avoid an executive making a decision that would personally benefit him?
