CFE – Law — Question 8
Tatiana is the chief executive officer (CEO) of ABC Warehouse, a retail mattress store that has been struggling financially. A week before ABC Warehouse files for bankruptcy, Tatiana sells ten mattresses to her husband at 80% below market value. Which type of fraud scheme has Tatiana MOST LIKELY committed?
Answer options
- A. A fraudulent bankruptcy
- B. A planned bustout
- C. A concealed transfer
- D. A fraudulent conveyance
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Tatiana likely committed a fraudulent conveyance, which involves transferring assets to avoid creditors before bankruptcy. Selling mattresses to her husband at such a significant discount indicates an intention to hide the value of the assets. The other options do not accurately represent the specific act of asset transfer with intent to defraud creditors.
