Financial Investigation & Forensic Accounting, 2nd Edition

Embezzlement, graft, fraud, and money laundering are among the hardest crimes to prosecute. Investigation is impossible without an understanding of the law, accounting, finance, and banking procedures. Law enforcement must have the proper weapons to combat the evolving sophistication of financial crimes. Financial Investigation and Forensic Accounting offers a thorough examination of current methods and legal concerns for the detection and prosecution of economic crime. The author is an I.R.S. agent with 15 years of experience in fraud investigation. The book guides law enforcement and prosecutors from detection through indictment and conviction. The author explains the mechanics of gambling, fraud, and money laundering. He illustrates how prosecutors present the tax codes, offshore banking laws, and the Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) statutes to judges and juries. He also details the exacting legal standards for the successful execution of warrants, seizures, and forfeitures. Manning\'s work is a guidebook for error-free prosecution. His multidisciplinary concept, integrating accounting, law enforcement, and financial savvy, is an invaluable approach to the detection and prosecution of economic crime. This book explains complex issues such as seizures, forfeitures, and warrants in an easy-to-follow format with capitalized key words and certain sections in outline form. It contains sources for offshore banking information, by country, with many of the smaller Caribbean nations included. It includes forms 4789 (Currency Transaction Report), 4790 (Report of International Transportation of Currency), 8300 (Report of Cash Payments over $10,000), and provides RICO net worth schedules, tax net worth schedules, gross profit analysis schedules, etc., in dozens of concise tables and illustrations.
