but the system would account for the lack of inventory loss, so it would become increasingly hard to justify this.
Who would catch this, though?
The question asked is whether a franchise owner could use fake orders to use dirty money and boost clean profits. What does the inventory have to do with anything? The franchise owner doesn’t care, because they’re the ones doing the money laundering. And McDonald’s corporate doesn’t care because they still get paid.
It doesn’t seem like a particularly efficient method of money laundering, but I am curious to know if this could feasibly be a pipeline for cleaning money in small quantities.

If it was a mom and pop, easy.
McDonald’s, yeah for a little while but I bet they’d catch you stealing from them before someone caught you laundering money.
