PROBLEM
1. Briefly describe the three-step process of an accounting system evolution.
ANS:
(1) Analysis. Identify the needs of those who use the business's financial information
and determine how the system should provide this information.
(2) Design. The system is designed so that it will meet the users' needs.
(3) Implementation. The chosen system is put in place.
DIF: 1 OBJ: 01
2. List the objectives of internal control and give an example of how each is implemented.
ANS:
Internal control provides reasonable assurance that:
(1) assets are safeguarded and used for business purposes
(2) business information is accurate
(3) employees comply with laws and regulations
Examples are:
(1) duties are separated
(2) duties are rotated
(3) reports are submitted to management
There are many other examples that would be correct.
DIF: 2 OBJ: 02
3. List and define each of the five elements of internal control.
ANS:
(1) Control Environment. The control environment is the overall attitude of

management and employees about the importance of internal controls.
(2) Risk assessment. Risk assessment is the identification of risks faced by an
organization so that management can take necessary actions to control them.
(3) Control Procedures. The control procedures are the policies and procedures
designed to provide reasonable assurance that the business goals are met and fraud
is prevented.
(4) Monitoring. Monitoring is the location of deficiencies in the internal control
system and improving them.
(5) Information and Communication. Information and communication to management
about the control environment, risk assessment, control procedures, and monitoring
elements of internal control are needed by management to guide operations and
ensure compliance with reporting, legal, and regulatory requirements.
DIF: 1 OBJ: 02
4. Two features of internal control are presented in the following sections. Each is followed by a list
of four irregularities that occurred in processing data. Identify the one irregularity from each list
that would be discovered or prevented by the feature of internal control described.
(a) The sum of the balances of the accounts in the customers ledger is compared at the
end of each month with the balance of the accounts receivable account in the
general ledger by a person who has no responsibility for maintaining either the
general ledger or the customers ledger.
(1) Five hours of services were rendered but the customer was only billed for
four hours.
(2) A cash receipt of $750 was recorded correctly in the accounts receivable
controlling account but was posted to the customers ledger as $75.
(3) A bill for services rendered to Cole Co. was erroneously posted to the
account of Coleman Co. in the customers ledger.
(4) No entry was made in the accounting records for services rendered to a
customer.
(b) Both cash and credit charges for services rendered are recorded on prenumbered
invoices. At the end of the day, all invoices are accounted for before the duplicate
copies of the invoices are routed to the accounting department for entry into the
accounts and the cash is sent to the cashier's department for deposit.
(1) Some charge customers complained that the monthly statements of account
did not add all amounts correctly.
(2) Some clerks used incorrect hourly rates in preparing invoices.
(3) Some clerks destroyed duplicate copies of cash invoices and
misappropriated the cash.
(4) Some charge customers complained that the monthly statement of account
