    Hello people! Mao ni siya akong ignorant assessment! Please ko check if naa ba siyay reasonable basis.

    Uhm. Phoebe and Odessa, ang naai quotes kay inyu na work. And BOLD kay mga dugang nako:)

    Tan.awa daw if sakto and then I revise dayun inyo work kay murag lahi ta ug word nga ki.gamit. Hehe.

    The internal control of bank reconciliation is not being implemented properly. An interview with the

    Finance manager revealed that they failed to consistently perform bank reconciliations.

    The internal control of bank reconciliation is not being implemented properly. An inquiry with the

    Finance manager and other members of the company revealed that they failed to consistently

    perform bank reconciliations. This, as a result, suggests that theres likely a misstatement of the

    balance of the general cash account which appears a significant red light.

    The automatic update of the inventory whenever a transaction occurs could be considered as a

    compensating control.

    What kind of automatic update is being referred here? RFID? BAR CODE? Automatic update of inventory

    kay muexist rana ciya in the perpetual system environment, and Im sure nga wala sila nagemploy ana

    kay cost constraints So ang statement dapat ana kay: The active involvement of the Operations

    Manager in monitoring abrupt changes in inventory level whenever a transaction occurs (be it a sale

    or a purchase) could be considered as a compensating control.

    1. In purchase transactions, the Finance manager and Operations manager purchase together. This

    setup is an effective control over the purchasing process. Operations manager lists the items to be

    bought with the corresponding prices and then Finance manager records.Also, since the Operations

    Manager receives the goods, the authorization (general manager), accounting (finance

    manager) and custody of goods (operations managers) are quite properly segregated hence

    the basis of our fair assessment mentioned above.

    2. We could not also say that there is an improper segregation of duties here since Operations managers

    records should coincide with Finance managers records. And Finance manager must ask General

    Managers authorization before withdrawing for the purchase.

    1. Based on our inquiry with management, the petty cash custodian is the Finance Manager and atthe same time, she is the one that makes the minor disbursements and records such. This situation

    suggests an improper segregation of duties since the one who is in charge of the recording or

    accounting function should not be the same person as the one who has the custody of the asset.

    Hence, Finance Manager, be her as the one in charge of the custody of the petty cash, should not be

    entrusted anymore of the recording of minor disbursements as suggested above and the recording of

    the replenishment in case the petty cash runs low.
