This instructional case describes a role playing exercise that has been successfully used at Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) to provide students with hands-on experience b testing internal controls in a revenue cycle audit. Although this activity involved relatively little formal lecture input from staff, there was a significant Investment of staff time in writing the role play document and in organizing and facilitating the role play exercise. Students’ feedback was largely encouraging In that a high level of enjoyment and understanding of the material was observed.
