Applied Auditing
Audit of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Importance of Audit of Cash and Cash Equivalents

The audit of cash is considered an important part of an audit mainly due to these following reasons:
• Almost all business transactions will be ultimately settled through the cash accounts, the audit
of cash accounts also assists in the verification of other asset and liability accounts as well as
revenue and expenses.
• Cash is the highly liquid asset in a company and it is an area of high inherent risk since there is
a relatively high risk of misappropriation
• Liabilities, revenues, expenses and most other assets flow through the cash account
• Cash is the most liquid of assets, thus the most susceptible to theft, embezzlement, and
misappropriation
• Errors in cash accounts may indicate errors elsewhere

Audit Objectives

There are adequate internal control structure policies and procedures for cash
• All cash should be in the custody of the client is actually on hand or deposited at the bank
(EXISTENCE)
• All of the cash in the custody of the client is properly recorded (COMPLETENESS)
• The cash in the custody of the client is properly disclosed in the financial statements
(PRESENTATION & DISCLOSURE)

Internal Control over Cash Transactions

Ideally, the functions of the finance and accounting departments should provide assurance that:
• All cash that should have been received was in fact received, recorded accurately, and
deposited promptly
• Cash disbursements have been made only for authorized purposes and have been properly
recorded
• Cash balances are maintained at adequate, but not excessive, levels by forecasting expected
cash receipts and payments related to normal operations

To avoid the likelihoods of the material misstatement, the entity would:


• Not permit any one employee to handle a transaction from beginning to end
• Separate cash handling from record keeping
• Centralize receiving of cash as much as possible
• Record cash receipts immediately
• Encourage customers to obtain receipts and observe cash register totals
• Deposit each day’s cash receipts intact
• Make all disbursements by check, with the exception of small expenditures from petty cash

• Have monthly bank reconciliations prepared by employees not responsible for the issuance of
checks or custody of cash. The completed reconciliation should be reviewed promptly by an
appropriate officer

Audit Working Papers for Cash

1. Lead schedule
2. Cash count sheets
3. Bank reconciliations
4. Proof of cash
5. Lists of outstanding checks
6. Lists of checks being investigated
7. Bank transfer schedule
8. Bank confirmations
9. Recommendations to the client for improving internal control, and
10. Notes concerning proper presentation of cash in the client’s balance sheet

Audit Procedures for Cash

Existence or Occurrence
• Count all cash on hand simultaneously
• Follow up subsequent dispositions of items included in the count
• Obtain or prepare reconciliations of bank accounts as of the balance sheet date
• Trace all bank transfers for the last week of the audit year and the first week of the following
year
• Confirm bank deposit and loan balances and other arrangements with bank

Valuation
• Trace a sample of entries in the Cash Receipts Journal to the Accounts Receivable subsidiary
ledgers, bank validated deposit slips and general ledger

Presentation and Disclosure


• Determine proper financial statement presentation and disclosure of cash

Substantive Testing—Cash and Cash Equivalents

Obtaining Analyses of Cash Balances and Reconcile them to the General Ledger

The auditor will obtain a schedule (lead schedule) that lists all of the client’s cash account. This
schedule will typically list the bank, the account number and other relevant information, and the year-
end balance per books. This list will also include cash on hand and the sources of this cash on hand.
The auditor will trace and reconcile all the accounts to the general ledger as necessary.

Cash Count

1. Identify the accountability:
a. If petty cash fund, the accountability is the imprest balance per general ledger.
b. If undeposited collections, the accountability is total undeposited collections per
books/records adjusted further for any unrecorded collections (based on the additional
information of the problem.
If there is no direct information about collections per records, the accountability is
collections per Official Receipts, Cash receipts voucher or other documents evidencing
collections.

c. Other collections (e.g. return of expense advance, collection for charities, or any other
purposes not in tact and assumed to have been included among currencies. If the said
collections for any other purpose is in tact, the same shall be ignored in the cash count.

2. Identify valid supports to the accountability as presented in the problem


a. For petty cash fund, acceptable valid support shall include:
- Bills and coins, replenishment check, encashable Accommodated checks (valid cash
item)

- Unreplenished petty cash expense vouchers (adjusted to expense account)


- Employee IOU (adjusted to receivables)
- Postdated/NSF checks
*unused postage is not a valid support where the accountability is the petty
cash fund
*return of an expense advances (e.g. excess from travel advance) is added to
the accountability and not added to valid supports.

b. For undeposited collections


- Bills and coins
- Depositable customer collections checks as of the count date (Post dated, stale, or NSF
checks as of the count date are not included as valid collection, thus should not be
included as valid support)
- Copies of expense vouchers evidencing the use of the collection to pay certain expenses
- Unused postage stamps (valid support where accountability is undeposited collections)

Special audit considerations for cash

(1) Kiting. Kiting is a form of fraud that overstates cash by causing it to be simultaneously included in
two or more bank accounts. Kiting is possible because a check takes several days to clear the bank on
which it is drawn (the “float period”). Following is an example of how kiting can be used to conceal a
prior embezzlement in a company that has two bank accounts (one in Valley State Bank and one in
First City Bank).

Date Situation
12/15 Bookkeeper writes himself a P10,000 check on the Valley account, and cashes it, no journal
entry is made
12/16 Bookkeeper loses the money gambling in Bullhead City
12/31 Bookkeeper, fearing the auditors will detect the fraud, conceals the shortage by
1. Writing a P10,000 unrecorded check on First City account and depositing it in the Valley
account. This will cover up the shortage because Valley will credit the account for the
P10,000, and the check will not clear the First City account until January, no journal entry
is made until after year end.
2. When the First City bank reconciliation is prepared at 12/31, the check is not listed as
outstanding.

Kiting may be detected by preparing a bank transfer schedule, by preparing a four-column bank
reconciliation for the Valley account, or by obtaining a cutoff statement for the First City account.

Page 3 of 24
(2) Bank transfer schedule . A bank transfer schedule shows the dates of all transfers of cash
among the client’s various bank accounts. Know that its primary purpose is to help auditors to detect
kiting. The schedule is prepared by using bank statements for the periods before and after year-end
and by using the firm’s cash receipts and disbursements journals.

(3) Bank reconciliations . Auditors generally prepare either a two- or a four-column bank
reconciliation for
the difference between the cash per bank and per books. The four-column approach (also called a
proof of
cash) will allow the auditor to reconcile
(a) All cash receipts and disbursements recorded on the books to those on the bank statement
and
(b) All deposits and disbursements recorded on the bank statement to the books.

A four-column reconciliation will not allow the auditor to verify whether


(a) Checks written have been for the wrong amounts and so recorded on both the books and
the bank statement and
(b) Unrecorded checks or deposits exist that have not cleared the bank.

(4) Bank cutoff statements . A cutoff statement is a bank statement for the fi rst 8-10 business
days after yearend. Know that its primary purpose is to help auditors to verify reconciling items on
the year-end bank reconciliation. Tests performed using a cutoff statement include verifying that
outstanding checks have been completely and accurately recorded as of year-end, and that deposits in
transit have cleared within a
reason able period. The statement is sent directly by the bank to the auditor. In the above kiting
example, the cutoff statement for the First City account will allow the auditor to detect the fraud since
it will include the December 31 unrecorded check.

(5) Standard confirmation form . Auditors use a standard form to obtain information from financial
institutions (Standard Form to Confirm Account Balance Information with Financial Institutions). The
form requests information on two types of balances—deposits and loans . The form requests
financial institutions to indicate any exceptions to the information noted, and to confirm any additional
account or loan balance information that comes to their attention while completing the form. Know
that the form is designed to substantiate evidence primarily on the existence assertion, and not to
discover or provide assurance about accounts not listed on the form (evidence on the completeness
assertion is not elicited).

Typical substantive audit procedures for cash

1. Review disclosures for compliance with generally accepted accounting principles.


2. Inquire of management concerning compensating balance requirements and restrictions on
cash. A compensating balance is an account with a bank in which a company has agreed to
maintain a specified minimum amount; compensating balances are typically required under
the terms of bank loan agreements. Such restrictions on cash, when material, should be
disclosed in the financial statements.

3. Send confirmation letters to financial institutions to verify existence of the amounts on


deposit.
4. Count cash on hand at year-end to verify its existence.
5. Prepare a bank transfer schedule for the last week of the audit year and the first week of the
following year to disclose misstatements of cash balances resulting from kiting.

6. Review the cutoff of cash receipts and cash disbursements around year-end to verify that
transactions affecting cash are recorded accurately and in the proper period.

7. Review bank statements to verify that book balances represent amounts to which the client
has rights.

8. Perform analytical procedures to test the reasonableness of cash balances. Tests here may
include comparisons to prior year cash balances. These procedures help verify the existence
and completeness as well as the accuracy of cash transactions.
9. Review year-end bank reconciliations to verify that cash has been properly stated as of year-
end.

10. Obtain a bank cutoff statement to verify whether the reconciling items on the year-end bank

https://cdn.fbsbx.com/v/t59.2708-21/73182120_31736532893…oh=e878f20c788614ec156dff6d7b9528b4&oe=5DE2019F&dl=1 28/11/2019, 8G37 PM

reconciliation have been properly reflected.

11. Foot summary schedules of cash and agree their total to the amount which will appear on
the financial statements.
12. Reconcile summary schedules of cash to the general ledger.
13. Test translation of any foreign currencies.
CASE 1
The following are examples of audit procedures that might be undertaken on an engagement.

1. Stand by the payroll time clock to determine whether an employee clocks in just once.
2. Compare the gross profit percentage for the current year with the historical trend.
3. Examine duplicate sales invoices to determine whether an appropriate employee checked
prices and extensions and initiated the work as required by company.

4. Read the minutes of board meetings of the past year.


5. Obtain a letter from management stating that it made all books and records available to the
auditor.

6. Total the accounts receivable subsidiary ledger to determine whether it agrees with the
general ledger.

7. Inspect the year-end bank reconciliation to determine whether the internal auditor prepared it.
8. Confirm an accounts receivable balance.
Required: Identify the audit procedures performed.

CASE 2
Identify the assertion that each of the following auditing procedures would test.

a. Prepare a proof of cash.


b. Foot the client-prepared bank reconciliation.
c. Trace each of the outstanding checks on the year-end bank reconciliation to the cut-off bank
statement.

d. Count all cash on hand.


e. Prepare a schedule of interbank transfers.
f. Compare the date on checks dated on or shortly before year-end with the date of bank
cancelled the check.
g. Review minutes of the board of directors’ meetings for any restrictions placed on cash
balances.

h. Investigate all material checks listed on the year-end reconciliation but not returned with the
cut-off bank statement.

i. Trace the balance on the bank reconciliation to the confirmation received directly from the
bank.
