The officers of ETCO completed the application for the new pension plan and made a check in the amount of $64,000 payable to TransAmerica. ETCO submitted the application and the $64,000 check to TransAmerica through Mr. Sloan. Mr. Sloan submitted the documents and the check for $64,000 to Mr. Tom Boone, an employee of TransAmerica. The $64,000 was properly credited to ETCO's account with TransAmerica. On March 8, 1991, ETCO made a check in the amount of $22,000 payable to TransAmerica. The $22,000 check was also submitted to Mr. Sloan, who then forwarded the check to TransAmerica. The $22,000 check never cleared ETCO's bank account, and the funds were never credited to ETCO's account with TransAmerica. On May 20, 1991, Mrs. Thorpe contacted Mr. Sloan to inquire as to why the check had not cleared ETCO's bank account.
