Internal Control
III. Rundown
http://www.aasc.org.ph/downloads/PSA/PSA.php
The auditor should obtain an understanding of the accounting and internal control systems sufficient to
plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach.
Accounting system means the series of tasks and records of an entity by which transactions are processed
as a means of maintaining financial records. Such systems identify, assemble, analyze, calculate, classify,
record, summarize and report transactions and other events.
Internal Control System means all the policies and procedures (internal controls) adopted by the
management of an entity to assist in achieving management’s objective of ensuring, as far as
practicable,:
orderly and efficient conduct of its business, including adherence to management policies;
safeguarding of assets;
prevention and detection of fraud and error;
accuracy and completeness of the accounting records; and
timely preparation of reliable financial information.
The internal control system extends beyond those matters which relate directly to the functions of the
accounting system.
Control environment
The control environment includes the attitudes, awareness, and actions of management and those charged
with governance concerning the entity’s internal control and its importance in the entity. The control
environment also includes the governance and management functions and sets the tone of an organization,
influencing the control consciousness of its people. It is the foundation for effective internal control,
providing discipline and structure.

An entity’s risk assessment process is its process for identifying and responding to business risks and the
results thereof. For financial reporting purposes, the entity’s risk assessment process includes how
management identifies risks relevant to the preparation of financial statements that are presented fairly, in
all material respects in accordance with the entity’s applicable financial reporting framework, estimates
their significance, assesses the likelihood of their occurrence, and decides upon actions to manage them.
New personnel. New personnel may have a different focus on or understanding of internal control.
New or revamped information systems. Significant and rapid changes in information systems can
change the risk relating to internal control.
Rapid growth. Significant and rapid expansion of operations can strain controls and increase the risk
of a breakdown in controls.
New technology. Incorporating new technologies into production processes or information systems
may change the risk associated with internal control.
New business models, products, or activities. Entering into business areas or transactions with which
an entity has little experience may introduce new risks associated with internal control.
Expanded foreign operations. The expansion or acquisition of foreign operations carries new and
often unique risks that may affect internal control, for example, additional or changed risks from
foreign currency transactions.
Information system, including the related business processes, relevant to financial reporting, and
communication
An information system consists of infrastructure (physical and hardware components), software, people,
procedures, and data. Infrastructure and software will be absent, or have less significance, in systems that
are exclusively or primarily manual.
The information system relevant to financial reporting objectives, which includes the financial reporting
system, consists of the procedures and records established to initiate, record, process, and report entity
transactions (as well as events and conditions) and to maintain accountability for the related assets,
liabilities, and equity.

Control activities
Control activities are the policies and procedures that help ensure that management directives are carried
out, for example, that necessary actions are taken to address risks that threaten the achievement of the
entity’s objectives.
Generally, control activities that may be relevant to an audit may be categorized as policies and
procedures that pertain to the following:
Performance reviews.
Information processing.
Physical controls.
Segregation of duties.
Monitoring of controls
Management’s monitoring of controls includes considering whether they are operating as intended and
that they are modified as appropriate for changes in conditions. Monitoring of controls may include
activities such as management’s review of whether bank reconciliations are being prepared on a timely
basis, internal auditors’ evaluation of sales personnel’s compliance with the entity’s policies on terms of
sales contracts, and a legal department’s oversight of compliance with the entity’s ethical or business
practice policies.
1. Management’s usual requirement that the cost of an internal control does not exceed the expected
benefits to be derived.
2. Most internal controls tend to be directed at routine transactions rather than non-routine transactions.
3. The potential for human error due to carelessness, distraction, mistakes of judgment and the
misunderstanding of instructions.
4. The possibility of circumvention of internal controls through the collusion of a member of
management or an employee with parties outside or inside the entity.
5. The possibility that a person responsible for exercising an internal control could abuse that
responsibility, for example, a member of management overriding an internal control.
6. The possibility that procedures may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, and compliance
with procedures may deteriorate.
The nature, timing and extent of the procedures performed by the auditor to obtain an understanding of
the accounting and internal control systems will vary with, among other things:
The size and complexity of the entity and of its computer system.
Materiality considerations.
The type of internal controls involved.
The nature of the entity’s documentation of specific internal controls.
The auditor’s assessment of inherent risk.

Documentation of Understanding
The auditor should document his understanding of internal control. The extent of documentation is a
matter of the CPA’s judgment and the form of documentation depends upon his preference and skills.
1. Narrative descriptions 3. Flowcharts
2. Internal control questionnaires (ICQ) 4. Checklists
Required Documentation
deviations may result in the auditor concluding that the assessed level of control risk needs to be revised.
In such cases, the auditor would modify the nature, timing and extent of planned substantive procedures.
Communication of Weaknesses
As a result of obtaining an understanding of the accounting and internal control systems and tests of
control, the auditor may become aware of weaknesses in the systems. The auditor should make
management aware, as soon as practical and at an appropriate level of responsibility, of material
weaknesses in the design or operation of the accounting and internal control systems, which have come to
the auditor’s attention. The communication to management of material weaknesses would ordinarily be
in writing. However, if the auditor judges that oral communication is appropriate, such communication
would be documented in the audit working papers. It is important to indicate in the communication that
only weaknesses which have come to the auditor’s attention as a result of the audit have been reported
and that the examination has not been designed to determine the adequacy of internal control for
management purposes.
