They have a lot of clients, therefore their first responsibility for this week
is to set up an email account for each of them and register it with the BIR AFS
eSubmission system. They create a video tutorial showing VAT taxpayers how to
record transactions in the sales journal. Making this video was done with the
intention of letting current or future customers contact them. They finally
complete the lecture or video tutorial after several days. The last thing they did
this week was present their audit plan and procedures to one of their clients in
Cauayan City, Isabela. Three of them completed the reporting portion, and she
