APUYA, Precious NiÑa Y. In the construction industry, they are generally devoted to two primary functions: securing B. Contractor
contracts and delivering finished projects.
a. Project manager The correct answer is option B, Contractor.
b. Contractor According to ACCP307 Handout 02A - Audit
c. General contractor Considerations for Construction Industries, a
d. Subcontractor contractor is an individual or business that
obtains construction contracts and sees them
through, delivering what’s contractually
required. Typically, a contractor is someone
with experience in the construction field, often
within a given trade (an electrician, plumber,
etc.). At base level, the contractor is
devoted to two primary functions: securing
contracts and delivering finished projects.

Moreover, the definition of the incorrect


options from the same reference material is as
follows:
● Project manager - typically a
representative or employee of the
owner. This manager hires various
contractors and workers and oversees
their own work and hiring (if applicable
● General contractor – is the main
contractor on a jobsite, hired by the
owner to completely oversee the project
from start to finish. The GC is involved
in some combination of performing the
work directly, hiring subcontractor and
workers and managing the work of
subcontractors and their own hires.
● Subcontractor – is typically hired for a
specific portion of the job, usually
related to an area of expertise.
Depending on the jobsite,
subcontractors might be able to hire
their own workers, or may use workers
hired by the general contractor.

Hence, option B, Contractor, is the correct


answer.

d. Time and materials contract (T&C) contract (IPD) is defined as – is a delivery
model for delivering construction projects using
a single contract for design and construction
with a shared risk/reward model, guaranteed
costs, waivers of liability between team
members, an operating system based on lean
principles, and a collaborative culture. Letter C
is incorrect because Incentive construction
contracts is defined as a type of construction

agreed-upon payment if the project is
delivered by a certain date and at a specific
point. Letter D is correct as it matches the
definition provided in Handout02A - Auditing

It is based on the definition provided on
A. Premium
the handout, and at the same time, it is

New Philippine Hotel Rating System

The new set of accreditation is in accordance with the Tourism Act of 2009 or Republic Act 9593. This new scheme for
hotel ratings will be based on the number of points earned by each hotel after the audit. Compared to the old DOT
standards, which classify hotels by deluxe, first-class, standard, and economy, the new hotel rating system classifies hotels
by stars.

Each hotel can get a maximum of 5 stars, or a maximum of 1,000 equivalent points.

 1 star hotel = 251 to 400 points


 2 star hotel = 401 to 550 points
 3 star hotel = 551 to 700 points
 4 star hotel = 701 to 850 points
 5 star hotel = 851 to 1,000 points

In the new Philippine Hotel Rating System, the auditors will focus on the availability of certain facilities and their inventory,
availability, condition, quality, usability, and overall service. Hotels get star points depending on the criteria indicators like
the location of hotel, resort, and apartment hotel. One of the requirements includes hot and cold showers in bathrooms
that could start heating up in 20 seconds to get higher points.

Specific Audit Considerations


These are some of the key audit considerations for hotel industries. Again, these are not all-inclusive as other audit
considerations may arise during the course of the audit.

Revenue from Room Rent


This may be considered as the main revenue stream of a hotel company. Revenue from room rent is based on the price
set per category of room. It is important for an auditor to examine the pricing per room category and if proper pricing is
applied. The auditor may obtain list of room accommodations and compare the pricing charged with the price basis.

Upon ensuring that there is a consistency in terms of charging room rates, the auditor may resort to substantive analytical
review by making a straightforward computation of room rates per category times the number of occupants/tenants per
category during the year. Thereafter, the recomputed amount is compared with the balance of rental revenue per books
for any difference noted. The auditor may propose adjustment if with the result gathered the difference is material or
may ignore the difference, as applicable.

In addition, discounts may be granted to customers depending on various factors like holidays or company-made promos.
Special discount is also offered to groups of students, delegates, corporate customers, VIP customers, etc. The discount
granted should be based on the authorized structure by the management and board of directors. The auditor should
gather the pertinent documentation regarding the policy in granting discount and compare this with the actual discount
provided to customers. Any discount given outside of permissible limit should be inquired and investigated accordingly.

Revenue from rooms is subject to 2% withholding tax based on gross receipts.

Revenue from Foods and Beverages


Foods and beverages are billed separately from the room rentals. Business tax on foods and beverages is based on gross
selling price, exclusive of VAT. The auditor should ensure that the VAT is appropriately charged. Aside from this, the auditor
should validate the existence of the transaction through direct test of details. The auditor may get sample of transactions
during the year and vouch the related documents. The auditor should also consider the completeness of revenue by
conducting cut-off testing for transactions which happened near and after the reporting period.

Revenue from foods and beverages is subject to 1% withholding tax based on gross sales002E

Collectibility of Receivables
The auditor should obtain aging schedule from clients for the receivables from room rentals and foods and beverages, as
applicable. Thereafter, the auditor should test the completeness of the aging schedule with the receivables per books.
Any difference with the schedule and the balance should be reconciled by the client accordingly.

At year-end, the auditor should also compute for the expected credit losses (ECL) on the financial assets at amortized cost.
The auditor should obtain evidences of possible increase in credit risk from the initial recognition of the receivables. Should
there be significant increase in credit risk, ECL should be based on lifetime expected credit losses. If there are no indications
of any increase in the credit risk, ECL is based on 12-month assessment. Nevertheless, if there is an objective evidence of
impairment, the ECL should be based on lifetime expected credit losses with identified receivables that are credit-
impaired.

Reasonableness of VAT
Aside from that, the auditor should check the mathematical accuracy and reasonableness of business tax charged in the
official receipt. The proportional VAT of 12% should be based on the total room bill; thus, room rates charged should be
exclusive of VAT. Thereafter, the auditor should conduct test of reasonableness of output VAT. This is done by multiplying
the gross receipts during the year by 12% and comparing the result with the output VAT declared per BIR Form 2550Q.
Any ending balance of VAT payable per books should be reflected as the fourth quarter VAT payable in the tax return.

Service Charge
A service charge is the amount that is added to a bill for any work or services performed. The amount collected shall be
distributed to the “covered employees” under Republic Act (R.A.) No. 11360 or “An Act Providing that Service Charges
Collected by Hotels, Restaurants and other Similar Establishments be Distributed in Full to All Covered Employees”,
amending Article 96 of the Labor Code of the Philippines, which previously provides 85% of the total service charge
3|P age

“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.” – Confucius
AUDITING SPECIALIZED INDUSTRIES Handout-03
Auditing Hotel Industries EPC

collected by the establishment be distributed to covered employees, while 15% would account for losses and breakages
and be given to managerial employees, at the discretion of management.

Under R.A. 11360, all employees, except for managerial and supervisory employees, will be receiving additional pay
coming from the collection of service charges not less than once every two or twice a month, at intervals not exceeding
16 days. The collected service charge should be distributed “completely and equally” to the qualified workers based on
their actual hours or days of work or service rendered.

The company may include reasonable service charge, say, 10% based on the room rates availed by the clients. However,
the service charge should not form part of the billable amount subject to VAT.

Any dispute or difference on the distribution of service charges shall be settled through the grievance machinery as
provided in the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). In unorganized establishments, where no grievance mechanism is
established or the grievance mechanism is inadequate, the grievance will be referred to the DOLE Regional Office which
has jurisdiction over the workplace for conciliation. Unsolved grievances shall be resolved in accordance with existing rules
and regulations on the visitorial and enforcement power of the Secretary of Labor.

In connection with this, the auditor should ensure that reasonable service charge is separately included in the bill and the
service charge is distributed to covered employees accordingly. Again, covered employees should only pertain to “rank
and file employees”. Also, the auditor should check whether the service charges are distributed on time based on the
requirements under R.A. 11360.

DOT Accreditation
A certification issued by the Department to a tourism enterprise that officially recognizes it as having complied with the
minimum standards for the operation of tourism facilities and services.

Primary Tourism Enterprises


These are facilities and services directly related to tourism. DOT-certified primary tourism enterprises shall be periodically
required to obtain accreditation from DOT to ensure the quality of its facilities and services.

List of Primary Tourism Enterprises


 Hotel
 Resort
 Apartment Hotel
 Mabuhay Accommodation (tourist inns, motels, pension houses, and bed and breakfast, among others)
