If you a chain of retail stores, how do you make sure your managers are sending you all your money?

Question

Why I mean is like ok say I own a chain of retail stores like Wal-Mart for example, now I have millions of stores all across the globe, naturally I am one person and cannot keep an eye on all the stores. How do I make sure that the managers who report to me the amount of money the stores are making are correct and how can I make sure they are not ripping me off by taking some of the money themselves?

Answer 1

That's one of the things you'd have an accountants and auditors for. I'm sure Wal-Mart has quite a few.
