ABC Company is a relatively small dry-cleaning operation that has a very steady level of business. Since the company hired a new employee, however, cash inflows have decreased and the amount of promotional redemptions have increased dramatically. The owner of the company has been very impressed with this new employee, but has suspicions regarding her cashiering practices. When comparing cash sales to check and credit card sales, the owner noted that the redemption rate was dramatically higher for cash sales.
