AA – May 2017 – L2 – SC – Q5 – Internal Control Systems

Examination of internal control meaning, examples, and sources of audit evidence for completeness, ownership, and valuation.

You are the Auditor of Bistro Bottling Limited (BBL), a major manufacturer and distributor of fruit juice drinks based in Lagos. A review of the previous year’s audit working papers revealed some weaknesses in internal controls with regard to safeguarding the company’s non-current assets.

The company uses a combination of both owned and leased motor vehicles for operational activities, including deliveries to customers. It has recently sold some old vehicles and bought new ones in a bid to lower motor vehicle running expenses.

During the planning of the audit, you have decided that motor vehicles will be a key area because of the likelihood of weaknesses in the company’s system of internal control over non-current assets.

You are required to:

  1. (a) Explain with suitable illustration the meaning of Internal Control. (4 Marks)
  2. (b) List FIVE examples of internal controls. (5 Marks)
  3. (c) Identify TWO sources of audit evidence you will obtain for each of the following: completeness, ownership, and valuation, to provide reasonable assurance with regard to the company’s assets and liabilities. (6 Marks)
