Abstract
We introduce quasi-cofaithful ideals which is a generalization of cofaithful ideals, and investigate their
properties. We say a faithful ideal $I$ is textit{quasi-cofaithful} if $I$ contains a finitely generated
faithful ideal $I_1$. We show that every faithful ideal of $R$ is quasi-cofaithful if and only if every faithful ideal of $M_n(R)$ is quasi-cofaithful. We show that if $R$ has the descending chain condition on right annihilators of right ideals, then each faithful ideal of $R$ is quasi-cofaithful. For a u.p.-monoid $M$, it is shown that if $R$ is a quasi-Baer ring, then each faithful ideal of $R$ is quasi-cofaithful if and only if each faithful ideal of monoid ring $R[M]$ is quasi-cofaithful.
