Internal Control Weaknesses

ABSTRACT: A problem encountered in accounting information systems (AIS) education is that students sometimes do not understand how organizational risks affect firm value. This case presents a privately held restaurant that is currently under acquisition consideration by a publicly traded restaurant group that follows internal control guidance as stipulated by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) guidelines. The objective of this case is to present students with a causal link among (1) internal control weaknesses of a restaurant, (2) financial statement assertions, and (3) management decisions that can impact firm value. Students must identify and translate control weaknesses into the case's business valuation decision. The case is appropriate for undergraduate and graduate AIS and audit classes.

ABSTRACT We present an in-class scenario-based exercise by which accounting information systems students learn about the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) 2013 Framework. Students are randomly assigned to groups of three to five, and each group receives a list of 17 principles and 17 scenarios. These scenarios are based on emerging technology environments and are designed to illustrate the key ideas in each of the five components. Each group categorizes the principles and scenarios into the five components. For each scenario, students are expected to (1) review the key framework components and principles, (2) understand how each component relates to real-world implementation scenarios, and (3) identify potential internal control weaknesses and risk mitigation. Discussions are video-recorded to evaluate the in-class exercise and fine-tune subsequent exercises. Ultimately, this exercise can help students understand the COSO 2013 Framework in emerging technology environments.

German corporations are characterized as having been adaptable in the face of numerous traumatizing events during the twentieth century. This article explores how firms adapted their accounting information systems during the hyperinflation of the 1920s. It suggests that responses to the crisis focused on system elements identified as key to continuing operations. Initially, firms amended selling and purchasing arrangements, modified financial reporting, and shifted managerial reporting to nonmonetary information. As inflation accelerated, human resources were diverted to maintaining critical functions, especially those related to remunerating labor. While some elements of accounting systems fell into disrepair, there were also examples of innovation.

Microfinance Institution

<p><em>BMT is a sharia microfinance institution that can reach all levels of society and has the potential to develop into a professional, healthy, and sharia Islamic microfinance institution. However, based on observations in several BMTs domiciled in Kudus, Pati, Jepara and Rembang areas, it still seems that employee performance is poorly demonstrated by marketing that cannot reach the targets set by BMT, even many fictitious sales agents are very detrimental to BMT. This is due to the low internal control in the BMT. In addition, there are still many BMT employees who are professional with accounting so employees need sharia accounting training. This research is a field research with a quantitative approach. The data used are primary and secondary data with survey methods through questionnaires. There are three independent variables in this study, namely (X1) training in Islamic accounting, (X2) accounting information systems, and (X3) internal control. The dependent variable (Y) in this study is employee performance. A sample of 94 respondents, using the purposive sampling method. The results of this study indicate that: 1) sharia accounting training has an effect on employee performance indicated that the PAS direct effect coefficient on KK (path c) in model (1) is 0.12 and significant (&lt;0.02); 2) accounting information system influences employee performance by 0.19; 3) internal control has an effect on employee performance indicated by direct effect coefficient of 0.35.</em><em></em></p>

One important function of the accounting information system is internal control. The weak internal control system in several cooperatives in Payangan District also results in employees having the opportunity to commit fraud that can harm the company. Performance is the result of work achieved by employees in carrying out tasks in accordance with their responsibilities. Through the achievement of each individual, the company can produce complete performance and achieve success in accordance with what is expected by the company. To improve cooperative performance, it is very important to know the effect of applying accounting information systems and internal controls in improving company performance and increasing company productivity. The population in this study amounted to 531 cooperative members who work at cooperatives in Payangan District. Sampling uses a purposive sampling method and the test tool used is multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study prove that the accounting information system has no effect on company performance while the internal control structure has a positive effect on company performance. Salah satu fungsi penting dari sistem informasi akuntansi adalah pengendalian internal. Lemahnya sistem pengendalian internal di beberapa koperasi yang ada di Kecamatan Payangan juga mengakibatkan karyawan memiliki kesempatan untuk melakukan kecurangan yang dapat merugikan perusahaan. Kinerja merupakan hasil kerja yang dicapai oleh karyawan dalam melakukan tugas sesuai dengan tanggung jawabnya. Melalui pencapaian masing–masing individu maka perusahaan dapat menghasilkan kinerja seutuhnya dan mencapai keberhasilan sesuai dengan apa yang diharapkan perusahaan. Untuk meningkatkan kinerja koperasi sangatlah penting untuk mengetahui pengaruh penerapan sistem informasi akuntansi dan pengendalian internal dalam meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan dan meningkatkan produktivitas perusahaan. Populasi pada penelitian ini berjumlah 531 anggota koperasi yang bekerja pada koperasi di Kecamatan Payangan. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan metode purposive sampling dan alat uji yang digunakan adalah analisis regresi linear berganda.

The REA model was first conceptualized in a paper for the 1982 The Accounting Review as a framework for building accounting systems in a shared data environment, both within enterprises and between enterprises. The model's core feature was an object pattern consisting of two mirror-image constellations that represented semantically the input and output components of a business process. The REA acronym derives from that pattern's structure, which consisted of economic Resources, economic Events, and economic Agents. Simultaneous with its research publication, REA began to be used as a framework for teaching accounting information systems (AIS), originally at Michigan State University and then gradually at other colleges and universities. In its extended form, the REA model integrates the teaching of accounting transaction structures, commitment and business policy specification, business process engineering, and enterprise value chain construction. As of 2003, REA modeling is used in a variety of AIS courses and featured in a variety of AIS textbooks, both in the United States and internationally.

This study examines topics currently addressed in the introductory Accounting Information Systems (AIS) course and makes comparisons to past studies. The study includes an examination of 12 current AIS textbooks, syllabi from current AIS instructors, and the results of a survey of AIS faculty and professionals. The divisions of topics in the books and on the syllabi suggest that introduction to systems, internal control, and transaction processing are the most important topics to be covered. After these topics, the rankings diverge. The results of this study suggest that the emphasis historically placed on system analysis and design, while still important, is somewhat less than in the past. This was also apparent from the results of the authors' surveys of AIS faculty and professionals who use technology in their jobs. Both faculty and professionals agree that greater importance should be placed on teaching internal control and transactions processing, while moderate importance should be placed on software and hardware issues. Professionals ranked ethics and Internet education of greater importance than did faculty, while faculty rated computer fraud (which may tie in with ethics) and database management systems of greater importance than did the professionals. Professionals also placed higher importance on teaching software applications (particularly spreadsheet applications) than did faculty.
