Wait, the audit committee? That's a good one! I bet the person who wrote this question is trying to trick us. Nope, it's gotta be C.

Hmm, this one's a toughie. But I think C is the right answer. Management's gotta be the ones in charge of that stuff.

I'm pretty sure the answer is C. Management has to take responsibility for the internal controls, not the accountants or auditors.
