Haha, Jane's in a tough spot! It's like they're asking her to write a blank check for the company. Gotta love those sneaky management types trying to cover their tracks.

The answer is definitely False. Jane should just do what the management wants, right? They're paying her, after all. Who cares about some silly ethics code?

I think the answer is True. The ACFE Code of Professional Ethics clearly prohibits Jane from complying with management's request to state that the company is free of fraud when the examination did not reveal conclusive evidence. As a CFE, she has a duty to be honest and objective in her reporting.
