Q. Mark is the treasurer of Sky-Hi-Tech Corporation also, as such, he is responsible for protecting the assets of the corporation. One of Mark's subordinates, Jill, is in charge of reconciling the monthly corporate bank statements. Over a period of several months, Jill embezzled a large amount of money from Sky-Hi-Tech, covering up the theft using her bank reconciliations. If Mark had adequately supervised Jill, she could not have embezzled this money. Mark's actions (or inactions) constitute a breach of his duty.
