No, it is not possible to manipulate accounting records to present a better financial picture than what actually exists. Manipulating accounting records for financial gain can have serious legal consequences and is illegal in most countries. Additionally, altering accounting records will only serve as a temporary solution and will likely lead to larger problems in the long term.

Yes, it is possible to manipulate accounting records in order to present a better financial picture than what actually exists. Manipulating financial records is often done unintentionally, such as when bookkeepers or financial officials unintentionally misrepresent numbers, or by intentionally including false or misleading information in order to present a more favorable outcome. When done intentionally, manipulating financial records can potentially have serious legal consequences for the company and those involved in the manipulation.
