The story

Temporarily unable to obtain current figures for their upcoming business report, Art Lewis and others in the insurance department of Equity Funding devise a plan to fabricate figures that total the company's expected performance for that year. When the company does not perform as well as expected, Art and others decide to create fake insurance policies to generate the necessary figures to match the expected performance, a provisional measure that is only intended to last a short time. To sustain the company's growth, more policies must be continually created.
