Problem
Case: Diamond Foods, Inc. (Write-Up) - Why was the 2010 "momentum" payment larger than the 2009 "continuity" payment? If the earnings management was not exposed, do you believe the earnings management could have continued? If the earnings management did continue, how would it likely have been done?
