True

False

Answer 1

11)	option a is the correct answer
	when the billing scheme involves fictitious goods ,the defrauded
	company may not be able to detect the fraud by comparing
	purchases to inventory levels
	Reason-this is beause services are intangible and hence non- existent
	,therefore it becomes difficult to verify whether they were actually deliverd
12)	FALSE
	though the onus is on banks , it is not always the case.
	If the bank can prove two things that it accepted the check in good faith
	and deligence and ordinary care was excrcised - it may not be liable.
