I practiced a similar question where recommendations were emphasized, but I can't recall if they should only be about actions or also improvements.

I think option B makes sense because if there's a serious issue, the board needs to know directly, right?

I remember discussing how internal audit should maintain independence, so I'm not sure about co-opting a manager from the department being audited.

Hmm, I'm not sure if that's the best approach. The question mentions the project manager is part of a balanced matrix organization, so I might try presenting the situation to the manager of the sourcing department head first.

I heard the internal audit department once caught the CEO trying to sneak a ping-pong table into the office. Apparently, they have a strict 'no fun allowed' policy.

Well, at least they didn't include an option about the internal auditors doing a dance routine to ensure compliance. That would be a bit too much, even for this exam.
