record of payment.
BUCKHURST: Ah, I know what that is. There won't be a cheque for the total
amount. We always buy paint on a sale or return basis and pay for it each quarter as
we use it. I'm afraid that's my fault. I accepted the figure in the Stock Department.
We forgot the sale or return arrangement and put the paint in the wrong column.
BRENT: Very understandable. This sort of thing often happens.
BUCKHURST: What's the other anomaly?
BRENT: Well, these cheques made out to members of the staff. Could you tell me
something about them?
BUCKHURST: Certainly. We often cash cheques for staff as a service. The cheques
are made out to the company by the individuals. The cashier then totals up the value
of the cheques, comes to me for a company cheque for the same sum, and then goes
to the bank. He pays in the staff members' cheques and draws out an equivalent sum
of cash with the company cheque,
BRENT: But I notice from the bank statement that the amount paid in is less than the
amount drawn out. Here are the paying-in vouchers. This was the sum paid in to the
bank, but this was the amount drawn out.
BUCKHURST: Oh dear... yes. It does seem to be different. A difference of fifteen
pounds. I don't like the look of that one. Will you leave it with me and I'll look into it
this afternoon, and come and talk to you again.
(Later Mr. Buckhurst looks in on Mr. Brent again. )
BUCKHURST: I've found out the reason for the difference in those two amounts.
BRENT: Oh?
BUCKHURST: I'm afraid it was a fiddle. It can only have been Donald
Kennet, the clerk who always goes to the bank. I'm very upset about it.
We've never had a thing like this before.
BRENT: I wonder what he'll have to say for himself.
BUCKHURST: Yes. I'm just going to see him now. He's waiting in my office...
(In Mr. Buckhurst's office.)
BUCKHURST: Ah, Donald.
DONALD KENNET: You wanted to see me, Mr. Buckhurst?
BUCKHURST: Yes, Donald. We have a problem here which the auditors have
raised. Perhaps you can help.
KENNET: Oh, yes. I certainly will if I can, sir.
BUCKHURST: You usually go to the bank on Fridays to cash staff cheques, don't
you.
KENNET: Es, Mr. Buckhurst.
