Carl Kerns is one of the directors of the board. Carl said that as a board member they are given the profitand cash flow budgets. He was appointed by the board to conduct an internal audit of operations to lookfor weaknesses in the internal control system. His report uncovered the following processes that hebelieved needed to be strengthened.● While the overall customer base is increasing from year to year, there may be internal control issuesrelating to how these new customers are secured.● Some discounts that were being given to customers were recorded as a net amount on the invoicesand gave no indication of the discount from standard prices.● Some cash registers in the stores were not reconciling the cash in drawer with the register printout.● Not all timesheet overtime amounts were being authorized by the line manager.● Service invoices for some items of equipment were not signed or linked to a purchase order. Therewas no check that the work had been carried out.● Not all assets in the stores had unique codes fixed to the asset.● There was a minimal feedback line of communication from the shop floor to head office, particularlywhen an error in the budgeting report process was recognized.● Debtor reconciliations were not done monthly and sometimes not at all.● In busy times the cashiers that operated the registers were also asked to do their own reconciliationsand banking. Sometimes the cash was held in the store for a day or two.● Job roles were not clearly defined so that responsibilities and liability can be identified.● There was little rostering of duties and cash receipts were not pre-numbered.Of concern to Carl was the directive given by the board to ensure that audit trails were created andmaintained. These included:● Signing the timesheets for employees under the authority of a department manager.● Maintenance of a numbered cash receipts book.● Using sequenced cheques as a systematic way of evidencing all monies paid out.● Ensuring proper coding of evidenced transactions against appropriate general ledger account andcost center.Ensuring reconciliations between company books and third-party bank statements are performed BSBFIM601 Manage FinancesStudent copyAssessment Booklet BSBFIM601 Version 4.20 Copyright Pax Institute CRICOS No. 03152D RTO No. 22207 Page 31Assessment 1 Assessor ChecklistAssessor Use ONLYThis checklist is to be used when assessing the students in the associated task.
