Description

Story explains how retailer Merry-Go-Round got into financial trouble, and was then led astray by Ernst & Young. According to the story, "...months went by as they (Ernst & Young) conducted studies, produced financial projections and developed a cost-saving proposal. Far from proposing immediate store closings, Ernst & Young recommended stocking up stores with a wide-ranging variety of fashions in hopes a sales pickup in the next season's back-to-school shopping. It didn't work. The crisis grew worse."
