Selected Answer: A
Option D has a narrow scope of auditing for invoices that have already been submitted, and cannot effectively prevent the discovery of split travel and entertainment expense claims in real time. Although it is important to always audit for new suspicious claims, there is a limit to how much it can do to prevent invoices that have already been split. Therefore, the most effective method is to use CAAT to audit annual transactions and ensure that travel and entertainment expenses are properly approved.
