Question:
A company’s financial records show that its annual revenue increased from $1.2 million to $1.8 million over a three-year period. However, upon closer examination, a fraud examiner discovered that the increase in revenue was the result of fraudulent activities by the company’s management. The examiner determined that the actual revenue for the first year was $1.2 million, but the reported revenue for the second and third years were overstated by 20% and 40%, respectively. Calculate the amount of the fraudulent revenue reported for each of the three years, as well as the total amount of the fraudulent revenue for the entire period.
