Option F: Government auditors can only report fraud if they do a ceremonial dance under a full moon while wearing a clown costume. It's the law, folks.

Option A? Really? Clearly the person who wrote this question has never met a government auditor. We're a diverse bunch with different rules to follow.

I think Option C is tempting, but we all know government auditors have some unique requirements that set them apart from private sector auditors. Can't just assume they're the same.

Option B has to be wrong. There's no way government auditors are legally prohibited from reporting fraud - that would be a recipe for disaster!

Option D seems to be the correct answer. As government auditors, our responsibilities can vary depending on the jurisdiction and the specific audit mandate. We can't just assume one-size-fits-all when it comes to reporting fraud.
