ACC 201 Chapter 07 Homework

Problem 7-1A

Mainland Supply Company recently changed its system of internal control over cash disbursements. The system includes the following features.

Instead of being unnumbered and manually prepared, all checks must now be prenumbered and written by using the new checkwriting machine purchased by the company. Before a check can be issued, each invoice must have the approval of Erin McGarry, the purchasing agent, and Barb Speas, the receiving department supervisor. Checks must be signed by either Amaika Blake, the treasurer, or Ken Yost, the assistant treasurer. Before signing a check, the signer is expected to compare the amount of the check with the amount on the invoice.

After signing a check, the signer stamps the invoice PAID and inserts within the stamp, the date, check number, and amount of the check. The “paid” invoice is then sent to the accounting department for recording.

Blank checks are stored in a safe in the treasurer's office. The combination to the safe is known only by the treasurer and assistant treasurer. Each month, the bank statement is reconciled with the bank balance per books by the assistant chief accountant. All employees who handle or account for cash are bonded.

Identify the internal control principles and their application to cash disbursements of Mainland Supply Company

Principles		Application to Cash Disbursements
		Only the treasurer and assistant treasurer are authorized to sign checks.

		Invoices must be approved by both the purchasing agent and the receiving department supervisor. Payment can only be made by the treasurer or assistant treasurer, and the check signers do not record the cash disbursement transactions.

		Checks are prenumbered. Following payment, invoices are stamped PAID.

		Blank checks are kept in a safe in the treasurer’s office. Only the treasurer and assistant treasurer have access to the safe. A checkwriting machine is used in writing checks.

		The check signer compares the check with the approved invoice prior to issue. Bank and book balances are reconciled monthly by the assistant chief accountant.

		All employees who handle or record cash are bonded.
