Abstract: THE EFFECT OF FRAUDULENT FINANCIAL REPORTING AND THE ROLE OF FORENSIC ACCOUNTING ANALYSIS
This study investigates the impact of fraudulent financial reporting and the role of forensic accounting analysis in detecting and addressing such fraud. The objectives are to identify common fraudulent reporting practices, evaluate the effectiveness of forensic accounting techniques in detecting fraud, and assess the challenges faced. A survey research design was employed, gathering data from 300 forensic accountants in Lagos. The sample size was calculated using Taro Yamane's formula, ensuring a representative sample. The reliability coefficient score of the survey was 0.88. Findings indicate that forensic accounting analysis significantly enhances the detection of fraudulent financial reporting by employing detailed analytical procedures and forensic techniques. However, challenges such as the complexity of financial transactions and limited access to comprehensive financial data can impede effectiveness. Recommendations include enhancing regulatory oversight and promoting the use of advanced forensic accounting tools and techniques to improve fraud detection and prevention.
