Hola,

Siempre en relación con el tema tributario:

Si la infracción contable fuere en una [contra una] persona jurídica, responderán por ella los particulares involucrados. Igualmente, se persigue a quien en ejercicio de su cargo, profesión u oficio **simule o suponga deudas**, enajenaciones, gastos o pérdidas; falsee balances y estados financieros: pague dividendos ficticios de utilidades inexistentes, con el ánimo de disminuir el patrimonio de la sociedad.

fraudulently records


Explanation:
In this case, "simular" refers to the act of falsifying or fraudulently doing something. "Suponer" would be "to incur".

I would translate your text like this:

"Similarly, this would apply to anyone who fraudulently records debts, disposals, expenses or losses in the execution of the duties of their position, profession or role..."

simular o suponer (deudas...)
to fake or contrive ('scam' debts...)


Explanation:
Note that it is not possible to 'doctor' a debt, rather the instrument containg such.

Must be an unsual meaning of suponer to 'conjure up'.


The debt may be completely fake, canceled, discharged, forgiven or beyond the period for collection. In any case, the scammer will use all sorts of techniques-A

Example sentence(s):
  • Anyone can fall victim to fake debt collection calls, because the scammers are often very convincin
