Raven Head Ranch case analysis
Raven’s Head Ranch case analysis
Part One:
This case focuses on the weak internal controls, conflicts of interest, and a weak board of directors in escalating unethical decisions, resulting in the misappropriation of funds for a small homeowner’s association. The case is based on a real-life situation and vividly illustrates the roles of governance and internal control in aligning organizational and stakeholder objectives and how “good” people can make bad decisions. The setting of a small, volunteer-driven nonprofit allows students to apply the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) Internal Control – Integrated Framework to a realistically fluid situation with missing, weak, or bypassed controls and a weak governance system with no outside reporting requirements.
