Association of Certified Fraud ExaminersFinancial investigations may be related to business operations, reorganization or transactions that involve mistake or fraud depending upon the awareness, sophistication, and motivation of those involved. The investigation might include scrutinizing accounting transactions, record reconstruction, tracing funds, or recovering assets. For investigations involving the propriety of the financial accounting, the subject being investigated can range from revenue recognition to the apportionment, deferral, or understatement of costs. These investigations often involve the impact of accurate accounting on various forms of executive compensation and the value equation in stock transactions occurring during the period of misstatement.
