Topic 2:
Martha Hanson operates a small gift shop that sells various antiques, such as glassware. She employs two clerks who make sales to customers, accept returns when a customer is dissatisfied with merchandise, and put new merchandise on display. One of the clerks, Jill Hays, was hired recently.
Martha had always done all the accounting for the store and had made bank deposits. However, Jill has offered to do the accounting for the store during slow periods when there are no customers in the store; she also has begun making bank deposits as she leaves for the day. Having Jill take these responsibilities allows Martha more time for acquiring merchandise for the store and for personal errands.
What potential risks for the success of Martha’s business are present in this situation?
Do not forget APA format on your sources, in-text citations.
