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.

Hmm, co-opting a manager from the department being audited? That sounds like a conflict of interest to me. I'll go with C and D for sure.

I'm not sure about option B. Reporting directly to the board might be a bit extreme, unless there's a really serious issue with a director. I'd go with C and E myself.
