Elements of Internal Control: (CRIME)
E : Control Environment
Factors (CHOPPER)
• C = Commitment to competence
– Effective control requires a sincere interest on the part of the employees in performing good work.
• H = Human resource policies and practices
– A company can minimize the control difficulties created by new employees by sound hiring and training policies for employees.
• O = Organizational structure
– A company that operates all over the world has different internal control problems than one operating entirely within a single building.
• P = Participation of those charged with Governance
– An audit committee of the board of directors that actively monitors the internal audit function produces a more attentive management on such matters.
• P = Philosophy of management and mgt operating style
– The belief (or lack of it) in the importance of internal control by management will affect the seriousness with which it is taken by the rest of the employees. This is especially the case when decision-making in the company is dominated by a single individual.
• E = Ethical values and Integrity
– Honest employees will be less likely to cause internal control difficulties related to fraud and improve the opportunity for those resulting from errors to be effectively detected.
• R = Responsibility assignment
– The manner in which authority, responsibility and accountability is assigned to different employees determines the controls that will be needed. Again, the domination of decision-making by a single individual holds significance, since such power makes it extremely difficult for internal control to be trusted.
