Benford's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Benford’s Law can often serve as an indicator of fraudulent data and assist in auditing accounting records. It describes the distribution of the first digits in a dataset. For example, a sales figure of $11,292 would be represented by the digit 1.

In the chart above, we can see that the distribution of the digit 1 in the actual data is higher than the distribution predicted by Benford's Law for the digit 1. This indicates that we need to investigate the transactions of the sales figures that start with the digit 1.

Please refer to the attached application.
