The Manual and Prep Guide state:
"Before conducting a covert operation, it is essential that the basis for the operation be committed to writing, preferably in a memo. The memorandum should clearly state: the information upon which the covert operation will be based; the information that is expected to be gained from the operation; the identities of suspects, if known; operatives under the fraud examiner's care, custody, or control. Confidential sources' identities should not be disclosed." Thus,expected informationbelongs, butconfidential source identitiesmust not

The Fraud Examiners Manual states that admission-seeking interviews should avoid yes/no questions like
"Did you steal the money?"because they encourage denials. Instead, the question should be phrased as if guilt has already been established. The Manual explicitly warns:
* "The accusation should be made in the form of a statement; it should not be made in the form of a question... Avoid emotive words such as steal, fraud, and crime... Example:'It is not so much a question of what you did, but why you did it.'" Thus, the most effective admission-seeking phrasing is:"Why did you take the money?"because it presumes involvement and encourages explanation rather than denial.

* "Distractions should be kept to a minimum. Ideally, there should be no photographs, windows, or other objects in the room. Chairs should be placed about four to six feet apart, and the accused should not be permitted to sit behind any physical barriers, such as chairs, tables, or desks" .
* The door should be closed (but not locked), not open .
* Tables or desks should not be between interviewer and suspect .
Thus, the correct adjustment is removing distractions (pictures/posters).

TheFraud Examiners Manualstates:
* "The primary concern when analysing digital evidence is to maintain the integrity of the data at all times. Fraud examiners must be careful with computer equipment because a careless investigator might inadvertently alter important evidence".
* Examiners must look for both inculpatory and exculpatory evidence.

* "Opinions or conclusions concerning the guilt or innocence of a fraud suspect is outside the scope of a fraud examination and should never be included in a report".
* Functions of a fraud examination report include presenting evidence, corroborating facts, and supporting credibility. Communicating the examiner's qualifications to provide opinions isnota function.
Therefore, option D is not a function of a fraud examination report.
