This research was carried out because of the phenomenon of the large potential of zakat in Indonesia and the large number of zakat funds that were corrupted due to unaccountable financial reporting. Many payers of zakat (muzakki) still do not believe in National Zakat Agency (BAZNAS), so zakat payments are often not made through the official of BAZNAS. This research was carried out through a survey which was designed to examine the accountability of financial reporting at the amil zakat and amil zakat institutions in Jakarta and Banten, related to internal control competencies and financial reporting accountability. The expected results of this study are an increase in the accountability of financial reporting by conducting sharia accounting training for staff in amil zakat and amil zakat institutions in Jakarta and Banten. The goal of this study is to contribute scientifically to the science of sharia accounting, specifically accounting for zakat, and to assist accounting departments in preparing financial statements. The results of this study state that compliance with the application of zakat accounting with Financial Accounting Standards Guidelines (PSAK 109) had no significant effect on financial reporting accountability, while the role of the internal control system had a significant positive effect on financial reporting accountability.

ABSTRACT Strong systems of internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) are critical to the production of reliable financial statements. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations require that companies design, maintain, and regularly evaluate their systems of ICFR, and Auditing Standard No. 5 requires that auditors evaluate companies' systems of ICFR. Therefore, it is necessary for accountants to be able to (1) describe and classify internal controls and (2) determine deficiencies in internal control. Recent reports suggest that accountants may lack sufficient training and guidance in these respects (e.g., Rapoport 2012). This activity provides an opportunity for students to practice these skills while learning more about the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission's (COSO) 2013 Framework. Provided are a summary discussion of ICFR and the COSO 2013 Framework, an outside-of-class reading assignment, and an activity that requires students (independently or in groups, either in or outside of class) to employ critical-thinking skills to: (1) classify (i.e., map) a listing of controls as being aligned with one (or more) of the COSO 2013 Framework's five components and 17 principles that comprise a well-designed system of internal control, and (2) identify any deficiencies (gaps) in design due to missing or inadequate internal controls.
