Hi
KarishmaBFor question 3 the answer is E
Also can you please explain below line
"At the same time, our research shows that both the size of the company and the reputation of the company's auditors are positively correlated with the probability that any potential channel stuffing would be detected, and this, in turn, reduces the probability of channel stuffing occurring"
what I inferred is - If Size of company is Large & reputation is high then there is high probability that Channel stuffing would be detected as they are positively related but at the end of the sentence it says "reduces the probability". Why there is contradiction?
Thanks for pointing it. Missed some data of tab 2! Edited.

What you inferred is correct: If Size of company is Large & reputation is high then there is high probability that Channel stuffing would be detected, IF IT OCCURS.
This is like saying that big companies are under the scanner all the time. So if they do anything illegal, they will get caught. Hence they refrain from doing illegal business.
Since the probability of detection is high (in case the company does engage in channel stuffing), the company refrains from doing it. Makes sense?
