Fundamental Accounting Principles, 24e (Wild)

Chapter 8 Cash, Fraud, and Internal Controls

1) A properly designed internal control system is a key part of systems design, analysis, and performance.

2) The use of internal controls provides a guarantee against losses due to operating activities.

3) Maintaining adequate records is an important internal control principle.

4) Clearly establishing responsibilities and assigning all accounting activities to one person is an important principle of internal control.

5) Cash registers, time clocks, and scanners are examples of technologies that can improve internal control.

6) An internal control system consists of the policies and procedures companies use to protect assets, ensure reliable accounting, promote efficient operations, and uphold company policies.

7) Insuring assets and requiring all accounting personnel to have CPA licenses are two important principles of internal control.

8) Because employees know that bonding is an insurance policy against loss from theft, bonding does not generally discourage loss from theft.

9) According to good internal control policies, a person who controls an asset also maintains that asset's accounting records.

10) Technologically advanced accounting systems rarely need monitoring for errors because computers always process transactions correctly.

11) Internal control in technologically advanced accounting systems depends less on the design and operation of the information system and more on the analysis of its resulting documents.

12) Internal control systems are subject to limitations that usually arise from either (1) human error or human fraud, or (2) the cost-benefit principle.

13) Collusion is a form of fraud where individuals collaborate to thwart separation of duties.

14) Separation of duties involves dividing responsibility for a transaction or a series of related transactions between two or more individuals or departments.

15) The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) requires managers and auditors of companies whose stock is traded on an exchange to document and verify the system of internal controls.

16) Harsh penalties exist for violators of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) – sentences up to 25 years in prison with severe fines.

17) Human fraud is driven by the triple-threat of fraud: Opportunity, collusion, and rationalization.

18) Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investment assets that are readily converted to a known cash amount, and have maturities of one year.

19) Liquidity refers to a company's ability to pay its long-term obligations.

20) Money orders, cashier's checks, and certified checks are all examples of cash.

21) Basic bank services such as bank accounts, bank deposits, and checking contribute to the control of cash.

22) The payee is the person who signs a check, authorizing its payment.

23) Electronic funds transfers (EFTs) are decreasingly used by companies due to the inconvenience and high cost.

24) Canceled checks are checks the bank has paid and deducted from the customer's account during the period.

25) A check involves 3 parties: a maker who signs the check, a payee who is the recipient, and a bank on which the check is drawn.

26) Signature cards, deposit tickets, checks, and bank statements are all examples of internal control devices for banking activities.

27) On a bank statement, deposits are listed as credits because the bank increases its liability to the depositor when the deposit is made.

28) The days' sales uncollected ratio measures a company's ability to manage its debt.

29) The days' sales uncollected ratio measures the liquidity of accounts receivable.

30) When evaluating the days' sales uncollected ratio, generally the higher the receivables balance, the better the ratio.

31) Internal control of cash receipts aims to ensure that all cash received is properly recorded and deposited.

32) A voucher system is a set of procedures and approvals designed to control cash payments and the acceptance of liabilities.

33) After the petty cash fund is established, the Petty Cash account is not debited or credited again unless the amount of the fund is changed.

34) If the Cash Over and Short account has a credit balance at the end of the period, the amount is commonly reported as miscellaneous revenue.

35) The clerk who has access to the cash in the cash register should also have access to the cash register tape or file.

36) A voucher system's control over cash payments begins when a company incurs a liability that will result in eventual payment of cash. 

37) A voucher system establishes procedures for verifying, approving, and recording liabilities for eventual cash payment.

38) Assigning purchasing, receiving, and paying for merchandise to one department or individual is a way to streamline a voucher system.

39) A voucher is an external document used to accumulate information to control cash payments and to ensure that a transaction is properly recorded.

40) Vouchers should be used for purchases of inventory and all other expenditures made within a company.

41) A debit balance in the Cash Over and Short account reflects an expense and is reported on the income statement as part of miscellaneous expenses.

42) The Petty Cash account is a separate bank account used for small amounts.

43) Since petty cash is concerned with such small amounts of cash, it is not necessary to document all transactions with a petty cash receipt.

44) Petty cash reimbursement requires a journal entry that involves a debit to the appropriate expenses and a credit to Cash.

45) The petty cash fund should be reimbursed when it is nearing zero and at the end of the accounting period when financial statements are prepared.

46) The entry to increase the balance in petty cash from $50 to $75 would include a credit to Petty Cash of $25.

47) A bank reconciliation explains any differences between the checking account balance on the depositor's records and the balance reported on the bank statement. 

48) Outstanding checks are checks the bank has paid and deducted from the customer's account during the month.

49) Deposits in transit are deposits made and recorded by the depositor, but not yet recorded on the bank statement.

50) It is generally not necessary for businesses to reconcile their checking accounts since banks keep accurate records and provide internal control support for cash.

51) After preparing a bank reconciliation, adjustments must be made for items reconciling the book balance.

52) Outstanding checks, deposits in transit, deductions for bank fees, additions for interest, and errors are all factors that can cause the bank statement balance for a checking account to be different from the company's checking account balance.

53) Outstanding checks, deposits in transit, and bank service charges are added to the beginning balance of the bank statement to determine the adjusted bank balance.

54) Proper internal control would require that a department manager inform the purchasing department of its needs for additional merchandise by preparing and signing a purchase requisition which lists the merchandise requested to be purchased.

55) An invoice is an itemized statement of goods prepared by the customer, listing the customer's name, items sold, sales prices, and terms of sale.

56) Approved vouchers are recorded in a journal called the voucher register.

57) A receiving report is a document used within a company to notify the appropriate persons that ordered goods have been received and to describe the quantities and condition of the goods.

58) When a voucher system is used, an invoice approval is not needed as long as the purchase is evidenced by an invoice and purchase order.

59) In order to streamline the purchasing process, department managers should place orders directly with suppliers.

60) A purchase order is a document the purchasing department sends to the vendor to place an order.
