It should be easy to remember that a good system of internal control is SACRED to a business.

• (Start) Initiation
– The auditor should determine what event or circumstance initiates a transaction.

Sales transactions, for example, may be initiated when the entity’s sales force make calls to their regular customers or when customers call in orders as they identify their needs.

• Authorization
– Before an entity will commit resources to meet its obligations in a transaction or to respond to an event or circumstance, it will want to determine that the counterparty to the transaction is a legitimate party with the intent and ability to perform or that the event or circumstance is real.

• Completion or execution
– The entity should have policies and procedures to make certain that its obligations in transactions and its responses to recurring events and circumstances are being performed in accordance with management’s directives.

This will include the flow of documents, services, goods, and other resources throughout the system.

• Recording
– The entity should have a system for making certain that all transactions, events, or circumstances that affect operations or financial position are properly captured and reflected in the entity’s financial records.

Some controls are considered preventative, designed to minimize the possibility that misstatements will occur.

Although a preventative approach has the tendency to be the most effective, it is not always feasible to develop controls that will be effective at preventing a misstatement, particularly one that results from fraud,

and in many cases, the cost of developing an effective preventative control will exceed the benefit that can be derived from it.

Q

Why a preventative approach is not always feasible to develop controls that will be effective at preventing a misstatement?

A

Why a preventative approach is not always feasible to develop controls that will be effective at preventing a misstatement?

Answer: Cost/ Benefit Consideration

The cost of developing an effective preventative control will exceed the benefit that can be derived from it.

Although a preventative approach has the tendency to be the most effective, it is not always feasible to develop controls that will be effective at preventing a misstatement, particularly one that results from fraud, and in many cases, the cost of developing an effective preventative control will exceed the benefit that can be derived from it.

Q

What are limitations of corrective approach type of controls?

A

What are limitations of corrective approach type of controls?

Answer:
The corrective controls may not be effective for a fraudulent misstatement that is cleverly concealed and may identify a misstatement after a negative impact has already occurred.

Other controls are designed to be corrective in that they are designed to identify misstatements that may occur due to errors or fraud and establish a means of correcting them on a timely basis.

These, of course, have their limitations in that they may not be effective for a fraudulent misstatement that is cleverly concealed and may identify a misstatement after a negative impact has already occurred.
